High Fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is indeed very bad news
.
It looks like honey, it has the consistency and colour of honey, it may taste like honey….But Honey Darling, it ISN’T honey, no way!
.
High fructose corn syrup can make your health even worse especially if you suffer from heart problems and/or blood sugar disorders.
.
There’re many reasons for this.
.
So…High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS): What exactly is it ?
High fructose corn syrup is a cheap ingredient that food manufacturers add to their products to enhance the flavour of their food product.
.
The really bad news is that HFCS is a whole load of empty, dangerous sugary calories that your body just doesn’t need – especially if you have to control your blood sugar levels.

Research: The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism
.
Researchers monitored 48 adults aged between 18 and 40 for 2 weeks. The participants consumed 25% of their daily calories as glucose, fructose or HFCS.
.
At the end of the 2-week trial, the participants had increased concentrations of LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and apolipoprotein-B – a protein that can cause plaques that, in turn, can lead to vascular disease.
