High Fructose Corn Syrup

Hi All,

Happy New Year everyone!!!  My latest readings in the fitness world have taken me into the area of nutrition.

I heard a great quote from someone last week.  I do not know the source.

“Look after your body it is the only place you have to live!!!”

Mercola’s article gives a great deal of insight into what has happened to the North American Diet with HFCS as the #1 source of calories for so many people.

If you consume HFCS you will store more fat than if you ingest the same amount of calories from glucose.   I found this hard to believe. His explanation is that all Fructose has to be metabolized by the liver where as glucose can be metabolized in so many other parts of the body as well as the liver.
