It has long been suspected by many nutrition professionals (myself included) that all fructose is not created equal, and studies are starting to illustrate the different impacts on your health from natural fructose versus HFCS.
Research performed in November 2018 by the Clinical Nutrition and Risk Factor Modification Centre of St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto, Canada showed that natural fructose in the form of fresh fruit and fruit juice, when consumed in reasonable amounts and not to excess, did not have a harmful effect on blood sugar and insulin levels.
Plus the fruit’s fiber and nutrients were added healthy bonuses.
On the other hand, foods and drinks sweetened with HFCS had a definite harmful metabolic effect and raised the risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes considerably.
And as if that’s not enough, HFCS is typically made with GE corn to boot, so you’re taking in cancer-causing glyphosate with every sip or bite.
