Blood Sugar Regulation and High Fructose Corn Syrup
Discuss blood sugar regulation and high fructose corn syrup and diabetes type 2.

High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) has been associated in the literature with the obesity epidemic and, therefore, increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Is this justified? Is HFCS that different in terms of chemical structure from other added sugars? If not, what is the justification for blaming HFCS for the obesity epidemic?
