| 18. Check my posts upstream... HFCS is metabolized differently |

Research is increasingly showing health risks specific to high fructose corn syrup which suggests its dramatic rise in use (substituting for sucrose)with the epidemic of type II diabetes and obesity is not just a fluke. Yes, even table sugar (sucrose) has inflammatory effects on the body and is not great when consumed in large quantities, but HFCS is emerging as far more harmful and far more uniquely harmful than the other forms and sources of "sugar."

sugar, honey, and regular syrups in moderation are fine - it's high fructose corn syrup |
