Is Sugar Really Toxic?

As shown in the Youtube presentation, then it depends on which sugar molecule you mean, whether is is lactose, fructose, sucrose, glucose, etc. The relationship between over consumption of fructose with the corresponding lack of dietary fibre consumption as a brake to the toxic effects of fructose would it seem make Dr Lustig's assertion that fructose is indeed a toxic substance at the quantities being consumed leading to long term health issues. The biochemical metabolic pathways for each carbohydrate were particular interesting.

What the MD failed to mention was that the same food industry corporation executives involved in this toxicological actuary time bomb are also executives for the health insurance, medical and pharmacological industries. So a win, win for these folks. These folks might not be fat, but you can't say there not happy. wink

I wonder if there really is a market opportunity for Glucazade port (for top endurance athletes)

But with Fructose (HFCS for the US market) instead of the Glucose and it should of course include some Aspartame and some Caffeine for that Buckfast double edged effect. Should be able to sell a few packets of aspirin as well on the same supermarket shelf. whistle
