High Fructose Corn Syrup Activates Fat Producing Gene

Sunday, March 08, 2009  -  Byron Richards, CCN

I wonder if the AMA is still sticking by its proclamation of safety for high fructose corn syrup.  This month’s issue of Cell Metabolism1 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. 

The evidence against high fructose corn syrup is overwhelming, just as the many years of evidence against trans fats that was also ignored far too long.  The evidence against high fructose corn syrup is overwhelming – it should be banned from the good supply.
