Never in my life have I seen anybody robbing anybody to obtain money to buy sugar. Why? Because sugar is legal.

Sugar is a drug and addictive, but it's legal. There is no war on sugar. No waste of precious and scarce resources that could be used to improve society.

Therefore all drugs should be legalized, REGULATED BY THE GOVERNMENT and taxed.

A million thanks for this precious content. I am free from sugar since January 1st (maximum of 3 fruits - fresh per day, no lactose, no juices...) I tried many many times before achieving it yet I have a question : what about sweeteners ? I consume lots of sweeteners and I wonder if it is a bad thing. Thank you !!!

Sweeteners can be problematic for a variety of reasons. You can read more on our sweetener guide.
