yes
Kevin Nelson
there is a spectrum of chemicals in corn syrup.

>mercury
quite possibly, but if it does, it does in such small amounts that you'd have to drink a hundred litres before suffering any ill effects from the mercury
>reactive carbonyl compound
protip: that's what all sugar is.
>advanced glycation end products
see mercury

Sounds dangerous

You're generally being memed by people who know shit about science into eating agave or honey. Yes, hfcs is probably unhealthy for you, but then again so is any other food if you eat enough of it.

this, there's no argument against the fructose component of hfcs being very bad for you and leading to obesity. But idiots like Mercola don't like to remind you that all sugars are like that. The only danger with fructose that doesn't apply equally to glucose is hepatotoxicity, but that's not going to happen eating just an unhealthy diet.

>mercury
Well if want to get technical pretty much all food does, corn syrup does too but in ridiculously low amounts like most foods.
>reactive carbonyl compounds
Fructose is a carbonyl containing sugar, like all sugars.

No, I just like honey because it is free from my hives.

Fructose will put the balance towards fat production because more glyceraldehyde is made and also takes less metabolic steps to get to that point in the triose forms. Glucose is the better sugar in every single way.
Cameron Green
Take the galactose pill.

Wtf are you faggots on about mercury in corn syrup? Fucking ridiculous
Also, HFCS is just fucking corn starch broekn down to glucose monomers and passed through membrane that turns some of the glucose into fructose because fructose is sweeter than glucose
The only danger regarding hfcs is that, in a soda for example, is easy to overconsume and accumulate a bunch of fat as a result of peoples stupid lifestyle choices

>worse for you than refined sugar
..."refined" sugar (cane or beet) is sucrose, a disaccharide, whereas corn syrup is mostly glucose, a monosaccharide.
Since glucose is found in the bloodstream, and sucrose is not, the facile conclusion is that sucrose is "worse" for you.
Whether this is true is up for argumentation.
Asher Russell
That's not how high fructose corn syrup is made. You are a retard
Aaron Phillips
The way that corn syrup is made puts mercury in it and there are a lot of stories about it retard
Samuel Perry
You guys are full on retards for believing a tabloid article from 2009. Moreover, hfcs is indeed made be passing a glucose syrup through a membrane containing an enzyme that converts it to fructose. I work for one of the largest food ingredient manufacturer and distributors in the US and regularly come accross full COAs from our own AND third party labs for each batch of ingredients.
Whether you choose to belive such stupidity doesnt affect me or anyone in any way, so by all means, keep subscribing to dr mercola and foodbabe blogs you total brainlets.

One less reason to believe you.

might want to actually read the articles there buddy

Never eating it again
