  1. I would have to say "Yes".  You don't need it.


  2. Yes, it is.

    Some nutrition experts blame increased consumption of high-fructose corn syrup for the growing obesity problem. One theory is that fructose is more readily converted to fat by your liver than is sucrose, increasing the levels of fat in your bloodstream. But this hasn't been proved.

    In addition, animal studies have shown a link between increased consumption of high-fructose corn syrup and adverse health effects, such as diabetes and high cholesterol. However, the evidence is not as clear in human studies.

    Despite the lack of clarity in research, the fact remains that Americans consume large quantities of high-fructose corn syrup in the form of soft drinks, fruit-flavored beverages and other processed foods. These types of foods are often high in calories and low in nutritional value. This fact alone is reason to be cautious about foods containing high-fructose corn syrup.

  3. h**l yes, it's one of the worst artificial sweeteners for you. It's unusable in the body and promotes fat storage. Many processed foods have high fructose corn syrup such as pop, ketchup, jelly, and breads. Stay away from it whenever you can.

  4. Wow mcstir totally copy & pasted lol
