Michael F. Jacobson of the Center for Science in the Public Interest, argues the FDA because HFCS should be considered an artificial ingredient.HammersMaryannDelicious Living
“HFCS is made from corn, the “king of crops” using chemicals (caustic soda, hydrochloric acid) and enzymes (α-amylase and glucoamylase) to hydrolyze corn starch to corn syrup containing mostly glucose and a third enzyme (glucose isomerase) to isomerize glucose in corn syrup to fructose t...
Few reports included details of the study – and evidence from other studies – which suggest thathigh-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is not worse, overall, than cane sugar (sucrose). Don't get us wrong. What is cane syrup called? Cane syrup, sometimes called"golden syrup," is often used i...
"There probably is very little difference between HFCS and sucrose [in] how they affect the body," said Kimber Stanhope, an associate researcher of molecular sciences at the University of California, Davis. Stanhope's research has focused on clinical studies of the effects of diet on the ...
Also Raisin Bran appears to have no BHT, but it seems Kellogs uses HFCS, where Post uses Corn Syrup. I also want to mention again, to read the boxes because you never know unless it’s a health food brand cereal, if they’ll start using BHT. Like, between the time you buy the ...
FDA does not regulate or measure. Independent medical and nutrition experts DO NOT support the use of HFCS in our diet, despite the assertions of the corn industry. HFCS is almost always a marker of poor-quality, nutrient-poor disease-creating industrial food products or food-like substances....
According to Dr. Robert Lustig, a Nationally recognized Professor of Endocrinology and Metbolism at the University of California in San Francisco, "HFCS is a death sentence". He states that HFCS is related to Obesity, High Blood Pressure, Cancer, Diabetes and Gout in adults. ...
Derived from corn starch, syrupy HFCS might be the scariest sweet. Much of it contains mercury, a by-product of chemical processing. But another danger is its high artificial fructose content, not to mention that it can be 75 times sweeter than white sugar. (Listen up, agave eaters: The ...
So IF HFCS has any direct effect on obesity, this is it. But it has nothing to do with HFCS and everything to do with the liquid form. Sucrose containing soda or fruit juice has an identical effect. I’d add more to this. Obesity is multi-factorial and many eating habits tend to ...
Sucrose or HFCS is a disaccharide sugar, which is made up of two sugar molecules – Glucose and Fructose. Glucose is a natural sugar that your body needs. This is energy that is used by the cells so they can function correctly. Glucose has been considered to be a healthy, non-toxic sug...
