1013. Sugar’s Connection to Chronic Disease

The Doctor Is In Podcast - A podcast by Dr. A.W. Martin and Dr. A.P. Martin

Did you know that 65% of the population has some form of chronic disease? Heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s and cancers are all considered chronic diseases. But did you know that 90 some years ago, in 1930, it was under 8%? What has happened that two thirds of the population now has some form of chronic disease? Dr. Martin says it’s because our diets have changed. The introduction of seed oils and the over-consumption of crappy carbs have all contributed to this change; but the biggest culprit is high fructose corn syrup. It’s the Frankenstein of sugar and it has set off an epidemic of an insulin resistant nation! Join Dr. Martin as he lays out sugar’s connection to chronic disease. It’s not a pretty picture and it continues to get worse!
