Irene grew up with parents who grew up on a farm. Her mother loved sugar and processed foods, but she also did a lot of cooking, making hearty meals.

Both of Irene's parents were overweight, and eventually they were diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.

In this episode, we discuss:

• saturated fats
• moderating sugar versus abstaining
• weight loss
• sweeteners
• feeling better, and different ways to get there
• what we eat in a day (and how often)
• naturally occurring sugars (like in fruit) and added sugar
• treats
• understanding those who are different from us

Where sugar's concerned, Irene is a moderator and she can handle just a little. But I (and maybe you) can't.

We're all different. And that's the beauty of this conversation.
