HFCS is not significantly worse than cane sugar or beet sugar or honey. All four are made up of approximately the same proportions of glucose and fructose. That doesn't mean HFCS is good for you, quite the opposite; it means sugar and honey are worse for you than ppl think. No. Cane sugar and beet sugar are almost 100% sucrose. I can't lay my hands on an analysis for beet sugar (which we don't get much here) but white refined cane sugar is one of the most pure chemical substances that you will find in your kitchen. Yes, but sucrose is fructose + glucose. Bob |
