There's nothing wrong with whole grains or fruit. The book "Wheat Belly" is terrible science. Also, my wife is a registered dietitian with a PhD, not a "nutritionist".

That's why I said "unbound" fructose. Sucrose is glucose and fructose with a chemical bond between. HFCS is a slurry; there's no chemical bond connecting the two. "Broken down in the small intestine very rapidly int

I suspect there's no good answer to that question. People vary widely. Some people drink lots of alcohol for years with relatively unscathed livers and others get cirrhosis pretty quickly. But your instinct is right that fructose that&

Just wanna say that my wife has a PhD in nutrition and this isn't news to us. We've "known" that unbound fructose is hard on the liver for years.

I don't understand. B2 is currently about half the cost of S3 for outbound data and 1/4 the cost for data at rest. What do you mean "stay competitive?"

Thank you so much for posting this! I saw this when it was originally posted back in 2008 and think of it often but could never craft the google-fu needed to unearth it again! (Findability, anyone?)

I'm the same way. Maybe I'm just not as competitive as the average person, but I only play co-op games with others. Single-player and multiplayer online co-op for me.
