Sugar and Health
Layne discusses the complex relationship between sugar intake and health outcomes, revealing that when calories are controlled, high sugar consumption does not significantly impact fat loss or metabolic health. Interestingly, he notes that the only notable difference was in LDL cholesterol levels, which improved in those consuming less sugar, likely due to higher fiber intake. The conversation also touches on feelings of satiety, highlighting the potential downsides of high sugar diets.In this clip
