He argues that fructose (too much) and fiber (not enough) appear to be cornerstones of the obesity epidemic through their effects on insulin. Be sure to watch this very informative video on the dangers of sugar.

Our friends Rick and Christina in Austin who we stayed with. I use to work with Rick at a Boat store.

Hi Everyone-

Wow ! What fun we are having in Texas. We just got back from Austin and had a great time visiting all the raw food restaurants and our friend Dr. Ritamarie. We took lots of pictures and videos. Some videos are posted on my juice feast blog so be sure to check those out too. Juice Feast

We stopped in at the Daily Juice and I absolutely loved it! I was so sad that I could not eat there. I am for sure coming back in November to eat there. We also went to Borboleta Gourmet Living Cuisine and it was yummy too. The Daily Juice had all these amazing juices and really beautiful raw food. The egg salad was the bomb. I can't wait to make it in my next breakfast class. We also went to Bliss Raw Cafe. It was really nice and good too. I made a video there that is on the Juice blog. I got really inspired and lots of ideas, inspirations and very creative. I was amazed at how creative the food is. Any decent raw food chef would definitely be traveling and trying out all these raw food restaurants for ideas and inspiration and just plain fun to try all the amazing food. I'm so excited to try all the raw restaurants on the way to Calgary too.
