A bit more about fructose

Eat for the health of it.

So many studies are done on animals but really, is this a good way to see if that product is going to harm us? Xylitol will kill a dog but it seems to be okay for people.

And how about corn meal? People eat corn meal all the time; corn fritters, corn bread, mush (yuk!) Anyway, if you want to get rid of ants around your back door just sprinkle a little corn meal around and the ants will eat it and they cannot digest it and it kills them.

They have studied the effects of dietary sugar on rats, when male rats are fed a diet deficient in copper, with sucrose as it's carbohydrate, they developed severe abnormalities of vital organs.

These experiments should concern us because of the enormous use of High Fructose Corn Syrup that are in soft drinks, fruit juices, catsup, cookies and other things that children like the most. Are they trying to eliminate kids?

A chiropractor that had examined children recently, says that children are like mush because they eat so many foods that contain this High Fructose Corn Syrup which is low in copper. Yes, we need copper to form elastin and collagen.

Sugar has been in our diets for a long time and it probably never was really good for us even though it was made from natural things like sugar beets and sugar cane. Then they made it from corn and vegetables--thus fructose, dextrose,and dextrine, but I don't think that any of these are as bad as the high fructose corn syrup, because when they made the HFCS they added chemicals. It was done in a lab, using chemicals, not a processing plant where we took out sugar beets or sugar cane. The only thing there was when they started to use a bleaching agent to whiten the sugar. Why does sugar have to be pure white?

I think they are just using too many chemicals in our food.
