[/quote] Meant to quote this in my post where I said 'Have fun while your young.'

Original Message
One doctor says that sugar addiction can be so strong, we may need rehab to overcome it. California-based endocrinologist, Dr. Robert Lustig said he thinks America needs to go to rehab for sugar addiction. Furthermore, he told CBS News “60 Minutes” that he believes that sugar is as addictive as cocaine. Like cocaine and other drugs, sugar can actually cause a euphoric feeling “that triggers dopamine, the chemical that controls pleasure in the brain.”
