Hi! Question about sugar

So I don’t know where to post this but if not here then where else. I am a nutrition student myself and we have to prepare a game for when new students come to visit our college - we got separated into groups, I’m in sugar. I had the idea of two truths/one lie - it’s fun and you can tell people fun facts about sugar and sugar substitutes they wouldn’t expect. We have some stuff already but we’re a little stuck, so maybe you guys have any ideas?
