It's Friday, the sun is shining. So why am I stressed?
Yep, I'm not alone.

Is it OK to say I get confused?
Perhaps it's more accurate to say I get frustrated by what I see in the media.
🤔 Which is better, low carb or low fat?
🤔 What's the crack about Intermittent Fasting?

Do you pick the "diet" option?
Soft drinks, low-fat yogurt, low-sugar ketchup?
We think we're doing the right thing by choosing low-sugar options, but a recent WHO report suggests otherwise...
Artificial sweeteners may be more h…https://t.co/KKKZbz8nXp https://t.co/jESQTW2GdU

It resonates with me. I think it resonates with many people.
