Goodbye-fructose corn syrup
Tuesday, April 21st, 2009So in case you hadn’t heard I thought I would let you know that new diabetes cases are up about 90 percent. Yeah, that’s right… 90 percent. Reuters reported it here.
And in case you didn’t know non-alcoholic fatty liver disease leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Check out this article. Diets high in fructose (especially with refined forms like high-fructose corn syrup) lead to fatty liver disease. Being that about 80 percent of things in the typical grocery store use high-fructose corn syrup… well that should simplify your grocery shopping!
First off, welcome. My name is Tim and I like food… yeah, who doesn’t? I like peaches, like in the picture to the left. I am in the background wearing jeans and a white tee with blue sleeves. 3/4 sleeves mind you. I like learning about food and knowing what it is that I am putting in my body. So this blog is about knowing, learning, and everything that goes with it.
