Is Sugar Toxic
Food for thought. Sugar is a lousy fuel, I alway use maltodextrin based products and for long endurance products with a protein component for, e.g., Hammer Perpetuem.
I enjoy licorice and wine only occassionally, and I almost never drink soft drinks (maybe 3 times per year). I over-indulge sometimes , but this is usually post-excercise when I’ve taken in too few carbos during the workout (which I try to avoid and learn from).
