Have you ever heard of a Food Anthropologist? They’re scientists who look at the history of food and the dietary changes in populations around the world.  As far back as 1776, during the declaration of independence in the United States, people consumed on average 4 pounds of sugar in a year. In the 1950s, it was 25 pounds. Fifty pounds in the 70s… and today, it’s 200 pounds of sugar in a year!  Dr. Martin looks at what sugar does to our bodies in today’s episode. He shares a study that’s showing how people with elevated levels of blood glucose are more likely to die from the coronavirus. Sugar actually impairs the “first responders” in your body, allowing the virus to spread.
