I’ve always been an advocate of a cheat day, or as one of my new clients calls it, “treat” day, with the recommendation that you also make it your long exercise day.

This goes back to earlier speculation that HFCS consumption is somehow is linked to obesity. Researchers then backpedaled on the idea, so I am curious where this will lead. Regardless, watch your intake of HFCS!
