Your body can't tell the difference between corn fructose and any other kind. Corn fructose originated in the 1970s because food processors were trying to reduce use of sucrose (the sugar from cane and sugar beets), since people said THAT was bad. So now we blame corn.<br /><br />The problem in America is that we all eat too much, and probably too much sugar (of whatever kind). We're the first society in history to have fat poor people (in most times and places, poor people can't afford to buy enough food to get fat). So if you want to cast blame for all the obesity, try looking in the mirror. Oh, and eat more salads and stop patronizing fast food restaurants.

They are just replacing a sugar for a sugar! HFCS is naturally made from corn, just like sugar is made from cane. It is handled by the body as same as sugar as has the same number of calories. Both are fine in moderation and the American public can rest assured that HFCS is safe. The American Medical Association says, “Because the composition of high fructose corn syrup and sucrose are so similar, it appears unlikely that high fructose corn syrup contributes more to obesity or other conditions than sucrose.” The American Dietetic Association says, “Both sweeteners contain the same number of calories (4 per gram) and consist of equal parts of fructose and glucose. Once absorbed into the blood stream, the two sweeteners are indistinguishable.” In 1983, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration formally listed high fructose corn syrup as safe for use in food and reaffirmed that decision in 1996. David Klurfeld, Ph.D., USDA Agricultural Research Service said it best though, “This is a marketing issue, not a metabolic issue."Kelsey Popehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151970799047757777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356426365183004627.post-29544820941864135942010-08-10T11:07:13.037-04:002010-08-10T11:07:13.037-04:00In what different ways may hi fructose corn syrup ...In what different ways may hi fructose corn syrup be listed on ingredients list?AdventureDogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06869764083217642385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356426365183004627.post-74307146300918368272010-08-10T11:04:17.498-04:002010-08-10T11:04:17.498-04:00can hfcs be labeled as sugar on ingredientscan hfcs be labeled as sugar on ingredientsAdventureDogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06869764083217642385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356426365183004627.post-28896276307555360012010-07-24T13:33:26.202-04:002010-07-24T13:33:26.202-04:00CORN SYRUP is NOT sugar at all- it is so artificia...CORN SYRUP is NOT sugar at all- it is so artificial it is not recognized by your body.

As a helpful suggestion, I think it would benefit your message to validate that statement with more information. Namely, I wonder why the Bush administration signed the bill. What gain did they see in setting up a chain of events that would benefit the 'junk food' companies? If you could finish providing the information about the Bush administration signing that bill it would be more educational and sound less like an invalid claim. I can assume Bush was funded by companies like PepsiCo while running, but that would only be an assumption and is not credible evidence/information. I would like to know the whole story. I hope you see what I am saying. Thank you again for presenting this information. I truly appreciate what you are doing.<br />RachelRachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14152255746460194131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356426365183004627.post-82162236853527658012010-06-16T15:32:09.172-04:002010-06-16T15:32:09.172-04:00If it is banned in the EU, why do I find it in so...If it is banned in the EU, why do I find it in so many products.......\<br /><br />Do you have some reference (I hope you are right..)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03748755286776982019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356426365183004627.post-3786643873921873822010-05-31T19:25:14.357-04:002010-05-31T19:25:14.357-04:00Great recap!
