My joints swell it seems when I injest too much caffeine or I eat sugar. I have always been allergic to sugar...I am also a recovering alcoholic...25 years of sobriety...but even as a young child, if I ate sugar or processed foods, I couldn't stop and it would knock me out. Now I can't each any at all...none...so sensitive...diet is so key...no simple carbs and no sugar and very,, very little caffeine...and cardio exercise everyday - I just want to feel good..no brain fog, no joint pain, energy and no depression....I work at it all the time...reading The Ultra Mind Solution and Freedom from Disease...talks about insulin and Alzheimers and other inflammatory diseases...thanks for listening.

It is a stimulant, isn't it? I wonder if that could be an issue with Lamar.

I'm certainly not saying the candy helps, but I think when you see him struggling in a game and not looking as aggressive, it has a lot more to do with severe back pain than his excessive sugar intake. The combination of the two probably doesn't help.. Good article either way, GO LAKERS!
