I've seen many variations of sugar is a "deadly psychoactive drug" so for personal interest I'll attempt a layperson analysis. The aim is NOT to pick on @FruehlingAnna (though it does concern me that she's telling her clients this). Corrections welcome...

I've chosen to use this paper as the title alone - "Intense Sweetness Surpasses Cocaine Reward" - indicates it favours those that share the sugar = drug narrative and I expect they'd be happy with it as a starting point: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Vegetable oil? Toxic. Will kill you. Sugar? Poison.

Nutrition Facts is so maddeningly misleading it's like a Netflix documentary. Let's pick one example from this video, the case report of a girl on a keto diet with scurvy... Here's the screenshot from the video above which is accompanied by the commentary "children have gotten SCURVY on ketogenic diets" and here's the case report (note it's ONE child, not children) in full: thefreelibrary.com/Case+report%3a…

Oh, look what's on Netflix in Australia. Grab the popcorn*.

Can, not, resist...

(* Actually smoked oysters for me) 30 minutes in and so far this movie should be used is an exercise in logical fallacies/critical thinking. Non Sequiturs, cherry picking, incomplete comparisons just to name the most common ones.

Hi @secureparking I just had a good experience with your parking service up until getting home and receiving an email telling me I had an additional $17 fee for LEAVING EARLY!? (i.e. freeing the space for more customers). I feel you failed to make this clear... ...here is the top content of the booking email, note it says "Booking end time", that is your first opportunity to make it clear I MUST leave within that timeframe, few would presume leaving early would be penalised from that...

Nice of the authors to let us know this is satire with the headline image of a gorilla. Gorillas, big, eat plants, nudge, nudge, 😉.

"that should lay the protein (non-)issue to rest for everyone"

Erh, I have questions... 🤚 "This makes a lot of sense too when you consider that many of the largest and strongest animals on the planet eat only or almost only plants, like rhinos, gorillas, and elephants."
