Disordered brain signaling, primarily related to seed oils and likely processed sugar, is the reason most people overeat.

◐Partially SupportedIn mice, fructose consumption leads to problems like oxidative stress and fatty liver, whereas honey consumption does not cause these issues.

✕Not SupportedComparing the postprandial blood glucose response from honey and Coca-Cola is a myopic view that does not reflect the full metabolic picture.

◐Partially SupportedCarbohydrates from whole food sources containing fructose, such as honey and fruit, are not metabolically harmful unlike isolated simple carbohydrates.
