It's rather long and of course is selling supplements, but lots of really interesting theories. Set aside about 15 minutes to watch it.

Are you in the US? I'm asking because I watched the first 10 mins or so and it was all about the dangers of HFCS (which is indeed an evil substance) but it's not normally added to food in Europe. Can't disagree with the sentiment to avoid it and foods that have added sugars generally though.

I'm concerned that following Brexit, we may relax our rules on US food imports. US seems to have the worst diet and most obese people in the world. I think all the corn syrup and preservative in processed foods are to blame. Not everyone has the time to make all their meals from scratch, so we need to be so aware of what's in the products that we buy and how they affect us. Most of my weight gain I attribute to buying lunch snacks on the go to try and snatch something quick in my break.

That's a very good point and a very scary one. Britain is going to be negotiating from a position of weakness and may be forced to accept these unhealthy foods. And big business and the government will love it because it means higher profits.
