    Really, no one should be drinking high sugar drinks. Even stuff like juice should be a once in a while thing. I’m as guilty of it as almost everyone else, I admit. Hard to break that sugar addiction.

        Much of the world does, unfortunately. Our bodies crave sugar because we needed the energy to do our hunting back when the species evolved… but we didn’t need or have access to a lot of it. Still, we crave it. And companies that make processed food are almost certainly aware of that fact since they employ food scientists and psychologists. They take advantage of it.
