How did he fuck up his liver? Do you mean that he was doing something that caused him to develop that tumor?

Jobs ate only fruit. That is a lot of sugar. Your liver doesn't like that.

Iirc, what we normally call “sugar” is sucrose, made up of glucose and fructose. Glucose is used all over the place and too much is definitely bad (ask diabetics), while fructose is processed in your liver. Like a poison.

Just trying to remember that from stuff I’ve seen from Robert Lustig MD. There’s a very old “sugar: the bitter truth” lecture of his on YouTube, plus lots of media since then.

Glucose is only bad in the same way oxygen is bad. I think you need to rewatch your lecture.

Diabetics don't have a problem with too much glucose they have an issue with too little insulin or insulin resistance

Too much glucose is a great way to get diabetes.

Kind of? Getting fat and eating too much regularly are great ways to get diabetes, and sugar is a great way to get fat.
