    If I only saw this 3 years ago when I was working in a lab studying artificial sweeteners😂 it was a multi variable experiment where we gave the rats either sugar water, saccharin sweetened water or regular water (control). Within those groups there were high fat/ low fat diet groups. From what I remember, the rats that got the saccharin sweetened water were noticeably bigger at the end before uh... “sacrificing” them. There’s a reason I left the lab 😂 learned how difficult holding a 1kg rat was 🙄

      Why is holding a 1 kg rat difficult? It's only 1 kilogram! Maybe it has something to do with the rat crawling on your hand?

      Sucralose is said to be especially bad for that. Probably because it is technically a sugar ("ose"), we just don't have the enzyme to digest it

    Thank you so much for this. I've hit fifty, and my usual practice of maintaining my sugar intake hit a new snafu. It is good to know this information. Last month, I was telling my doctor the substitutes were increasing my sugar cravings. Now this video has explained this is true, confirming I'm not crazy, I can tackle and handle my sugar demands far better. Thank you again!

    Dear Hank, you keep mentioning that fructose and glucose are chemically very similar. However in the context of metabolism, fructose and glucose are very different. Glucose is metabolised primarily with insulin , either into storage (fat) or glycogen for immediate use. However fructose can't. It is metabolised primarily by the liver, creating various metabolic byproducts. However, because fructose is so chemically similar to glucose, it can gum up the insulin pathways, causing the pancreas to work harder producing more insulin to metabolise the same amount of blood sugar load. In this way, both sucrose and HFCS are much harder on the liver and pancreas than rice, pasta or glucose syrup are, calorie for calorie . Can you please do a video about this metabolic difference? ( my husband and I are co-patreons)

      @Uncle Joe Believe me, we could learn a lot from you Aussies, up here in the U.S. If only we could get the egos under control of the people who are too... whatever it is.... to admit that our systems suck and that some (most, really) of our cousins across the globe have found great success in their systems.
      You'd think that if a country really wanted to be top-notch, it'd take all the best ideas from around the world and implement them at home.
      Maybe we (the United States) need to hit rock bottom before enough people are willing to admit that there are better ways to achieve a higher quality of life. I'll be long dead by then (before people are willing to admit, not before we hit rock bottom, sadly), but hopefully my grandchildren might have a chance.

      You missed the episode that mentioned the difference between artificial and natural flavors, didn't you?
      (Hint: It has nothing to do with the chemical, and everything to do with how we got it. If I take a beaker of Chemical A and a beaker of Chemical B, and mix them and they react, forming exactly 2 beakers' worth of Chemical C, then Chemical C is artificial. If, instead, I genetically engineer bacteria to produce Chemical C when fed Chemicals D, E, and F, then Chemical C is natural.
      So which would you rather have? The carefully measured and produced artificial one? or the messy bacteria-rich [Until filtered or, more likely, treated] natural version? )

      MOST corn-dogs, lunchmeats, and canned meats are filled w high fructose corn syrup.

    Why do humans get awkward in pauses in conversation?

    • @JossCade
      @JossCade 8 років тому +19

      The same reason "filler" words, such as "but", "um", "like", etc, exist, it gives us time to put our thoughts together so we can continue a conversation. However "awkward silences" take it a step further. The conversation has come to a natural stop, but we've been socialised to think that if we aren't talking it's wierd and we have to keep talking, so the "awkward silence" gets longer because both parties feel uncomfortable and are desperately focusing on both finding something to talk about, and how awkward them not talking is.

      josh Subet Best tip for getting better at that is to learn not to give a shit dude. If you're looking at talking to people as a way to achieve something (a friend, a relationship, etc.) it becomes a task. once you stop caring and just take things as then come things start to get easier

    • @jeremiahlakstins1309
      @jeremiahlakstins1309 8 років тому +1

      Communication is very complex and a lot of it is subconscious (for example we may detect changes in tone/facial expression that we don't feel are obvious enough to mention). I'd expect that to explain awkward pauses, a video on the complexities of social interaction would be necessary.

    I think the part about fooling our brains into craving more should be near the beginning. That's why high fructose corn syrup is so "fattening" if not addictive. Still better than Pb though. That's the best thing I can say about it.
