    hey hank, thanks for educating me on the matter. very sweet of you

    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)

      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!

    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 🙄

      @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? )

    I have a really dangerous allergic reaction to Stevia, and it's in no way labelled on products where I live because... Well, I have no idea. If you have Hay Fever or are just prone to allergies, avoid Stevia until you're certain it doesn't affect you.
    Also, if you live in Ireland, don't drink Coca-Cola Life or Sprite. Sprite gave me blisters around my mouth for over two weeks, and the replacement of sugar in it with Stevia wasn't even shown on the front of the bottle or in the allergy information.

    Fun fact. When McDonalds first arrived in Australia they did really poorly. Turns out we didn't like the sweetness of the hamburger buns. People who travel to America quite often comment on how sweet everything is. So maybe the real problem with corn fructose syrup is it's cheapness enabling food to be made a lot sweeter there for higher calorie than if sucrose was used.

      Same here ! But we all are. I got too much lead in my head. I loved breathing sweet smelling car exhaust when I was 5 (1958). It smelled soooo good. Streets, hiways, then freeways became redolent forests of vehicles emitting a favorite even now smell of lead infused hydrocarbons. Ahhhh, those were the days.

    Fun fact about lead in fuel (19:40 - 21:02): Almost all fuel used in piston-powered airplanes (most non-jet) still has lead in it. I looked up the amount, and its about 1.5 grams per gallon. The standard grade is 100LL (low-lead.)

    Lead in gasoline... Found a pump in CA about 2012 that had off-road 108 octane fuel that was labeled as containing lead. AV gas still has some lead in it, as do many racing fuels such as C116. We do use a lot less of it than we did in 1975 though.

    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.

    Lead: For such a long time it was used as material to make fishing sinkers, many of which remain on the bottom of lakes and ponds slowly dissolving into the water where the lead is taken up by fish and enters the food chain.

    Why do humans get awkward in pauses in conversation?

    • @JossCade
      @JossCade 8 ปีที่แล้ว +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 ปีที่แล้ว +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.

    Lead white oil paint is not nearly as opaque titanium white. It is however extremely tough and flexible. In the US, lead white is still available in artist-grade oil paint, although it can be difficult to find good quality lead white for a reasonable price. For oil painting on canvas, a lead white ground is the very best.

    Yeah that hyperactive thing. I'm actually addicted to energy drinks and people always ask me if I dont get hyper or whatever. No, I dont. Never have. It makes me feel more awake and I feel like I can concentrate better. It really doesn't make me "over active". 'Sugar rush' sounds so dramatic too, while I feel its only a little effect. Drinking more than 2-3 cans a day does give other consequences, though. Shaky, sweaty, restless. But that also depends a lot on my other (diet) habits. And yes, I know its bad for me. Why do I drink it then? Well it tastes good and I'm probably 90% of the problem addicted to the caffeine inside. The habit basicly just slipped in the passed 10 years, drinking a little more and more each year.
