"Both controversy and confusion exist concerning fructose, sucrose, and high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) with respect to their metabolism and health effects. These concerns have often been fueled by speculation based on limited data or animal studies. In retrospect, recent controversies arose when a scientific commentary was published suggesting a possible unique link between HFCS consumption and obesity. Since then, a broad scientific consensus has emerged that there are no metabolic or endocrine response differences between HFCS and sucrose related to obesity or any other adverse health outcome."

- adamnemecek 11y agoDid you read the whole paper or just the abstract? If you read the whole paper, why are you linking just to the abstract?
- asoplata 11y agoThe primary author is the central driver behind his own Rippe Lifestyle Institute [http://www.rippehealth.com/ http://www.rippehealth.com/] who, turns out, partners directly with Coca-Cola [http://www.rippehealth.com/partners/index.htm http://www.rippehealth.com/partners/index.htm], including "outreach" and "coordinat[ing] a number of symposia", which in all likelihood means paid speaking engagements. He and Coca-Cola may have honorable intentions, or he may be paid to advance their agenda. We don't know either way, but what we do know is they are connected to each other.
- adamnemecek 11y agoHahaha, this is too funny. I was wondering if I could find some info suggesting that they are being paid off but I didn't think of looking for it on their site. Good detective work.
