> About twelve 12oz cans of regular Coca-Cola

I hope people don't read this thinking they can get their caffeine just from a soft drink; each can has 36g of sugar.

How bad is it? For the last 30 years i eat 400g of sugar a day (i make whole cakes pretty much everyday and thats the amount i put in), on festivities about 1kg but then i get so sleepy so fast i kinda pass out. Nothing else serious so far.

Excess sugar consumption is widely thought to be one of the worst dietary choices we can make. Impacts insulin resistance, our energy levels, gut flora, etc. You should feel a difference just by sticking to natural sources such as the occasional fruit (some are low in the glycemic index e.g. blueberries, while most at least have fiber which reduces the insulin response).

In a word: bad.

Yeah I suppose obesity is implied at that point....

Since excess glucose gets stored as fat I was curious about the commenters weight
