HFCS is more dangerous in that it increases Grelin (hormone = 'make you hungry, long time, sailor), and decreases &/or reduces the function of Leptin (hormone = "Hey , fatso, your full, stop eating everything that isn't nailed down").

HFCS, fruit juice, and table sugar have almost an identical Fructose to Glucose ratio and all are equally bad for you (when too much is consumed). In fact a glass of grape juice has 50% more sugars than a Coke does.

I see you're still trying to perpetuate the same, tired myths.

4/07/2006-New research indicates that high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is similar to sugar in the production of leptin, insulin and ghrelin, and regulation of the body's calorie control mechanisms. The research was presented in San Francisco at the Experimental Biology conference on April 1-5, 2006.

Kathleen J Melanson and others at Rhode Island University reviewed the effects of HFCS and sucrose on circulating levels of glucose, leptin, insulin and ghrelin in a study group of lean women. All four tested substances have been hypothesized to play a role in metabolism and obesity. The study found "no differences in the metabolic effects" of HFCS and sucrose in this short-term study, and called for further similar studies of obese individuals and males. ("Similar effects of high fructose corn syrup and sucrose consumption on circulating levels of glucose, leptin, insulin and ghrelin,"

"A recent study by Martine Perrigue, et al at the University of Washington was presented at the April 2006 meeting of Experimental Biology. ("Hunger and satiety profiles and energy intakes following the ingestion of soft drinks sweetened with sucrose or high fructose corn syrup (HFCS)" Program Abstract # LB433) They concluded:"

• In this study, Perrigue compared subjects' level of fullness (satiety) after consuming high fructose corn syrup (HFCS)-, sucrose- and aspartame-sweetened beverages with milk and a no-beverage control. The study found that all four caloric beverages "suppressed hunger ratings and increased satiety ratings relative to the no beverage control. However, there were no significant differences in satiety profiles among the sucrose- and HFCS-sweetened beverages, diet cola, and 1% milk."

Oops, looks like you're still wrong. Now, back to CSPI with you.

Who F’n cares. Anything in large quantities is bad for you. We do not need these “moral busybodies” telling us how to live.
