The chart shows the relationship between sugar intake and obesity over a long period of time. Despite the chart being a bit outdated, the information is still relevant today. Obesity rates have not decreased and this is evident in the chart. Even though sugar intake has decreased, obesity rates have continued to rise. This highlights the importance of understanding our eating patterns and habits rather than simply cutting things out. Real change happens when we understand why we have cravings and energy crashes. So if you take a look at this chart, it shows sugar intake versus obesity prevalence. Now, this is over a larger timescale from 1980 through 2013. As I stated, even though this is a little dated, or maybe a lot dated, this information still holds true today. Obesity rates are not dropping. And this chart actually paints the full picture. Look at how sugar intake started to drop, but the obesity rates kept rising. That's why I always say it's not about obsessively cutting things out. It's about understanding your patterns, the foods that throw you off, the habits that keep you stuck. When you start seeing the why behind your cravings and crashes, that's when real change happens.
