“When you have added sugar, like SUGAR, I’m sorry it’s gonna be honey and maple syrup, and all the other stuff. That goes into the hippocampus and it shrinks the hippocampus and it decreases your memory, it increases anxiety, it decreases your focus. The amount of studies on humans and rats is mind boggling on this phenomenon.” 10:12
