This video convinced me that it’s time to try to kick the sugar habit again.  In the past three days, I’ve had more energy after cutting back on processed sugar.  And my next step will be to try to add more veggies into my diet.

More than 1.1 million people have viewed the 90 minute lecture, which is shocking giving the short 90-second attention span of today’s internet surfer.
