The Obesity Beverage - High Fructose Corn Syrup

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 means that if an overweight person consumes high fructose corn syrup they are locking in leptin resistance, poor metabolism, and directly increasing risk factors for heart disease and diabetes.

I have been saying for a long time that high fructose corn syrup should be banned from the food supply – here is more proof.  It would be the first step in combating obesity from a public health point of view.  The corn refiners lobby is more important than the health of Americans – another example of Capital Hill for sale.

Consumer Beware
HFCS is not only in soda pop and candy. Products that may contain high fructose include: ketchup, bread, honey mustard, barbeque sauce and other sauces, sweet relish, salad dressings, tonic water, vinegars, crackers, sports drinks, protein bars, granola bars, yogurts, and more.  Check your labels!
