How many people on DU do you think took high school science? [View All]

I constantly have to explain things I learned in grade 11 and 12. For real.

Like fructose not being a part of cellular respiration, being in fruit, but not really being metabolized by your body.

And sucrose being consistently chemically the same, no matter what the source.

And mercury poisoning looking nothing like autism, and "systemic candida infections" being serious, only occurring in immunocompromised people, and being a lot more than tummy aches and frequent yeast infections.

Jesus. I only got a B in high school biology, but I seem to know more than everyone else. Is it the Canadian education system or the fact that some people here are just anti-science?

Maybe I should go into public health after all.
