The idea of "Sugar Addiction" has been floating around for a few years now.
Some scientists and media personalities even claim that sugar is more addictive than cocaine. Understandably, these studies and remarks have invited controversy in the scientific community. I can't help but think that a lot of this "in-fighting" hasn't proven particularly useful...
That's why in this video we will be looking at the similarities between the history of sugar use and cocaine (when it was first cultivated 8,000 years ago in the Andes in the form of coca leaves) and explaining some of the research that compares the addiction potential of sugar vs cocaine.
As this is a pretty controversial topic, I'd be grateful if you can tell me in the comments what you guys think. Is sugar addictive? Is sugar more addictive than cocaine? Can't wait to hear what you guys have to say :)
Happy Viewing!
