I assure you that is not true for everyone.

Sugar is a very good source of calories if your electron transport chain is working optimally.

i assure you that blood sugar spikes stress everyone's systems

i can also assure you it distorts your brain function to have an excess of glucose in it, it makes your glutamate levels spike and that just lights up everything

oh, maybe you won't get sick like me, probably not, i'm not a common genetic mix, part asian, part european

but it's gonna fuck you up and it's also gonna distort your entire view of the world because of how it alters your incentives

This is totally false.

Sugar is actually known to reduce the stress hormones (cortisol, parathyroid, estrogen).

My brain works well on sugar, I've tried other things just telling you where I feel best.

Sugar also has the most evolutionary precedent as a commom food source: fruit and honey are still primary sources of calories for many extant hunter gatherers.
