High Fructose Corn Syrup Makes Your Brain Crave Food

The average American now consumes 145 pounds of high fructose corn syrup¹ per year – its lucky anyone is still able to walk.  New research proves exactly how high fructose corn syrup bypasses normal energy balance systems in your body, causing your brain to eat more food because it never really registers the calories of the high fructose corn syrup.

Obviously, this tilts the scale in the direction of obesity and diabetes, and as I just reported, heart disease.

It is a national disgrace that 30% of Americans are obese, and that this problem is heavily affecting teenagers who live on this garbage as their beverage of choice. 

When scientists want to make rats diabetic so they can study them, they feed them high fructose corn syrup until they become diabetic.  When will humans catch on?  And even a better question – is it the responsibility of others (meaning taxpayers) to pay for the massive costs of their self-inflicted disease?
