Here's The Thing: Robert Lustig

Here's the Thing
I think, typically, I'd suggest that you listen to Alec Baldwin's WNYC podcast Here's The Thing because he interviews entertainment celebrities like David Letterman, Herb Alpert or Lorne Michaels. However, I would be extremely remiss if I did not suggest you listen to his interview with Robert Lustig, a pediatric endocrinologist that speaks about the sugar addiction in the US. I realize that High Fructose Corn Syrup has, somehow, entered into the realm of Debatable Conspiracy Theories on if it's really as bad for you as some claim or if it's innocuous, as the food industry would have you believe. Hopefully you're on the side of the topic that believes we have a problem in our food production and it's actually causing some serious health issues across the country.

Go have a listen to Mr. Lustig, he speaks both intelligently and plainly on the subject - the best way to consume the information.
