Whether or not the science is sound in this article (I know very little about the corn vs. cane sugar issue), it looks like the OPs goal was to promote healthier living in the gaming community, something worthy of discussion I think. Even though I am very physically active (or was until about January of this year)--running 5 days a week, lifting weights and participating in a number of sports--I became quite ill recently and needed a number of bowel surgeries. While much of it was dumb luck, some of it probably stemmed from my diet and some bad habits I developed (too much pizza and coffee at table top games, not enough vegetables fruits, etc; sitting for prolonged periods of time to write or read, not getting enough water, not getting enough fiber).The impact of this on my gaming has been profound. Not only have I not been able to participate regularly in games with my friends; I actually had to bring a game I was running to a halt to go to the emergency room.  What I learned was, once one thing goes wrong, it can take time and effort to bring everything else back in line and continue with the activities you enjoy.</blockquote>
