Surprise Saturday Post

Here is an article on sugar facts. Much of the article is "sugar is bad." The eighth fact is "Turns out that cancer's preferred fuel is none other than glucose." They neglect to tell you that it also turns out that the brain's preferred fuel is none other than glucose, too.

I'm not saying that sugar is good for you, but I think that it (along with fats) gets an unfair reputation.

I learned about this in chemistry class! I memorized "dihydrogen monoxide" for a while just because I want to make water sound dangerous. I have since forgotten - thanks for reminding me!
