High Fructose Corn Syrup: Dangerous or Not?

High Fructose Corn Syrup is bad for you or not. Both sides of the issue have been discussed on the web. What does the science say?

In the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 86, No. 4, 895-896, October 2007 in an editorial…
How bad is fructose?

The article went on to say that the increase in consumption of soft drinks containing high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) or sucrose has risen in parallel with the epidemic of obesity.

More importantly, the article also referenced the implication of dietary fructose as a potential risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

The underlying health risks of soft drinks should cause us to eliminate them from our choices of foods.

Check out the editorial and decide for yourself.

    I’m categorically spamming your blog with the exact same comment I post on other blogs. Of course, this is for the sake of a link or even the odd visitor to my site. I will totally understand if you delete my URL.

    Even if you change my name from the unrelated site I will understand.

    Cheers….

    PS. Isn’t a little honesty refreshing?
