Dr. Casey Means: We live in a toxic stew

"So when fructose is metabolized in the body, not like glucose, it creates uric acid, which creates oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in the brain and the body that if you have mitochondrial dysfunction you're not going to be able to process sugars to energy, you know, mitochondria powerhouse of the cell.

So you break the mitochondria with the excess fructose overloading the mitochondria with the uric acid, and then what happens? You can't turn sugars to energy.

So what do you do? You turn sugars to fat. So you start 3D printing fat because you break the mitochondria with excess fructose. And on top of that, the mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress when happening in the brain is what may inspire the violence and the ADHD and all that stuff to make the bears manic so they get as much as possible.

This is what's happening in every kid in every classroom in America now. So that's kind of some of the biology very simply about what's happening with fructose.

This is the thing about fruit, is that we have 40 trillion cells and we have the ability to clear uric acid, and we have the ability to process fructose in a physiologic amount. We're never gonna have the uric acid increasing and overloading the mitochondria if we're eating an apple.

It's when you're eating 20, 30 times the fructose that an apple has and you're literally pouring it down that all of a sudden, imagine, you get this huge rise in uric acid in the body and other things that are happening.

And that's when it overwhelms. So it's a bit of that dose makes the poison because our body has the ability to excrete toxins. Our body has the ability to deal with some heavy metals.

Our body has the ability to probably clear some level of glyphosate, but we can't clear all of it all the time, 24 hours a day in a hundred times the quantity of all these things together. And the research and the evidence-based thing and this cult of the science, they love to ignore that.

The idea of synergistic effects of this overwhelming breaking of our cellular resources is just conveniently forgotten because we study things in isolation. That's literally the definition of how a double blind placebo controlled study happens. It's one variable and one thing that you're testing. You can't do it on food. We live in a toxic stew."
