100% true. They should come out with a study comparing the effects of sugar vs. the effects of HFCS though. We'd be lucky if we could find actual sugar the majority of the s**t they are talking about. I quit sugar once and after I was over soda, the effect on my well being was dramatic. It's good advice for anyone.
How many people would still eat junk food if it drained your bank account, could nearly kill you every time you eat it (long term health effects aside), and made it impossible to think of nothing else but eating junk food?This "study" does nothing but diminish heroin addictions.
i know caffine is a drug but a minor one and I am one who is addicted, but ive never done drugs but im assuming its about the same, cuz if I dont have a energy drink for two weeks or so i get irritable and twitchy so idk what do u think

Fast food is so addictive, BECAUSE IT CONTAINS "HIDDEN MSG" (monosodium glutamate), the 'METH' of the Processed Food Industry!SEE: '<a class="user" href="http://www.TruthInLabeling.org'" rel="nofollow">http://www.TruthInLabeling.org'</a> '/HiddenSources.html' for 25 plus Names used for "HIDDEN MSG." You will never guess their names!The "HIDDEN MSG" has clever names! The MSG is hiding right under the public's noses. MSG (an 'excitotoxin') only purpose in food, is to make you eat more and more and more and....'Truthinlabeling.org' lists the huge number of names for the "HIDDEN MSG," so you won't be fooled any more !!!! For example, Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP) is made by boiling junk vegetables in vats of sulfuric acid and then doused with caustic soda. --Sounds like the making of METH!--But HVP is "only one" of the new FOOD METHs. It was recently, recalled by the FDA for salmonella contamination."Citric acid", made from "CORN and BLACK MOLD," is another clever name. Everyone thinks it is made from citrus. LOLTry a few more names on for size: CARRAGEENAN, Natural Flavors, Spices, Malted Barley, Autolyzed Yeast, Enzyme Modified, etc...."HIDDEN MSG" is in Baby formula, sauces, dips, garden burgers, chili, etc.I lost 12 pounds immediately after I eliminated food with "HIDDEN MSG!"And I ask you, "Would you knowingly consume MSG or feed it to your BABY?"Most would answer, "Absolutely NOT!"I hate to tell you, but you are eating it if you are eating FAST FOOD! or Processed Foods!
