Which is sort of one of the two parts of the grain of sugar that I see. That's right. One part of it is fructose. That's right. It's the other half. Right. It's the evil twin, if you will. What are the two halves again? Glucose. Yeah. Fructose. Cool. Found together. I need glucose to live. My body will figure that out. Fructose. Do I need this?

Are we above that?

And also, just because grams are quite hard to wrap the head around, right?

So if I was to get a tablespoon... Well, do teaspoons. A teaspoon. Two spoons. How many teaspoons of sugar would I have to consume to get to that level of fructose? Because I say this in part because most of us don't realize that we're consuming sugar. That's right.

Sounds like a bit of a scandal. When I hear that these kids are getting, almost 30% of kids are getting, you know, almost three to four times their recommended daily allowance of sugar from school. and that it's having these sort of really adverse consequences on us, and the studies are there to prove that the consequences are very real.

And when we look across society at the consequences of this sort of corporate interference, some of the crazy stats in your book, Fat Chance, that I really sort of highlighted were that by 2050, obesity will become the norm, not the exception.

And in the UK, 28% of adults are obese and 36% of them are obese. That's not from your book, but that's from some research we did on the UK numbers as well. Well, you know, the UK is the fat man of Europe. Yes, that's true. Having metabolic syndrome is equal to losing 15 to 20 years of life. That was in your book. That's correct. Which is startling.
