The latest salvo fired off at the multi-billion dollar sweetener industry found that feeding rats zero-calorie saccharin (the main component of Sweet n’ Low), compared to actually eating sugar, caused them to eat more food in general as well as depressed their metabolic response to food – a double negative that readily promoted weight gain.

In a recent study it came as a surprise to researchers when they found that sucrose and high fructose corn syrup elevated blood triglycerides much higher than did fructose over a 24-hour period. This little problem throws a monkey wrench in the idea that all simple sugars are more or less the same. It explains one main contributor to obesity and heart disease.

It’s obvious to just about anyone that excess sugar consumption makes you fat. Now we even have data to prove that excessive sugar consumption, mostly from sweetened drinks like soda, is up at a rate that would require a 1 hour jog per day just to burn of the extra calories.

Just to keep the medical profession aware that I am keeping track of their utter incompetence in terms of recently stating that there was not enough evidence to warn against consumption of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) – I would like to point out to them another recent study which was actually conducted to show the powerful antioxidant capabilities of cranberries.

I have repeatedly stated that high fructose corn syrup should be banned from the food supply. A new study confirms the diabolical nature of this substance to induce leptin resistance and consequent obesity – and future heart disease and diabetes.

One day the bird brains in charge of the food supply and public health will wake up – maybe. In the mean time, avoid high fructose corn syrup like the plague. A new study shows that if you are overweight and you consume this at a meal, your metabolic profile is significantly worsened.

This month’s issue of Cell Metabolism has a feature article explaining exactly how high fructose corn syrup turns on gene signaling that promotes fat formation and fat accumulation – likely to result in obesity, insulin resistance, and type II diabetes.

Apparently I will need to change one of my favorite phrases from “high fructose diabetic syrup” to high fructose heart disease syrup.” A new study that followed 88,520 women for 22 years found that drinking one sugar-sweetened beverage per day increased heart disease risk by 23% and two or more of these drinks per day increased heart disease risk by 35%.
