And one could even argue it plays a role in the aggressiveness of the modern American work schedule, because it's not uncommon to wake up tired to an energy drink, trudge through a drive-thru for an inadequate 30–60 minute lunch break, snack on boxed and bagged chips & crackers throughout the day, and order dinner in after nine unfulfilling hours of low wage work with a little traffic cherry on top.
01:55 The demands on us create the conditions for the mental gymnastics we do to justify what is an addiction to finely tuned frankenfood that is making us sick, fat over dependent and unable to use our brains properly.

The do-good doctor, excitotoxin educator and corporate food science truth teller Dr. Blaylock welcome to the higher side! Oh thank you for inviting me I appreciate it Of course. This sort of came about in a roundabout way where I heard you on the high wire with Dell BigTree and I learned a lot about your career and just how long you've been a critic of the processed food industry, and the high-wire interview itself was a result of a big bit of news that came out in July where the World Health Organization committee came out and said hey aspartame should maybe be categorized as possibly carcinogenic
