I am pretty sure I probably eat way more processed sugars than I should. My wife and I actually eat pretty decent and we have started to add back full fat items like Greek yogurt mostly because those low fat foods ahve so many sugars in them. I can't stand the taste of artificial sweeteners, so those are off the table for me. I can tell instantly if something has aspertame or stevia in it. It's weird because I feel healthier and I don't feel like I go super crazy food wise, but my cholesterol is still a bit high as well as my metabolic panel numbers.

Cutting down on sugar is such an important step! It's hidden in almost all processed food. It's one of the most inflammatory things we can consume and can cause brain fog. I had to switch to grass-fed meats and dairy before I saw much of a change in my metabolic profile. I guess the diets the animals are fed in conventional farming changes the lipid profile of the meat/milk and makes it a lot less healthy.
Very interesting. I have always had a bit of sweet tooth, so cutting the sugars will be difficult for me to say the least.
