The Truth About Sugar: Debunking Myths on Middleish

Research is not always straightforward. So, with the high fructose corn syrup in our food supply, it really depends on what foods are you eating that are high in this.
Ever wondered if sugar is really as bad as everyone says? In this episode of 'Middleish', hosts Erin Green and Michael Gray take a deep dive into the controversy surrounding sugar. With Erin's background as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Michael's expertise as a personal trainer and nutritional coach, they bring a balanced perspective to a topic that's often blown out of proportion. They start by addressing the basics: yes, even everyday foods can be toxic if consumed in excess.
Vitamins, minerals, and even water have toxicity levels. But when it comes to sugar, the dosage and form make all the difference. Erin and Michael dissect the latest claims that sugar is 'toxic' and discuss why these sweeping statements can be misleading. You'll hear them break down the science behind different types of sugar, including fructose and high fructose corn syrup, and touch on artificial sweeteners.
They also explore the limitations of current research and why it's essential to maintain perspective when interpreting scientific studies. Throughout the episode, Erin and Michael emphasize the importance of education and healthful eating patterns without being judgmental. They stress that while sugar should be consumed in moderation, it's not the dietary villain it's often made out to be. Their engaging and authentic discussion aims to clear up misconceptions and provide listeners with practical advice for a balanced diet.
So if you're tired of the fear-mongering around sugar and want to understand what the science really says, this episode of 'Middleish' is for you. Tune in for a refreshing take on how to enjoy life's sweetness without going overboard.
