A post about HFCS I made in my other journal.

This link above your head proves exactly why HFCS is especially bad for you. We all knew it, and now not only is their this proof, but it's scary.


Basically, they fed rats half the amount of HFCS in soda in a mix of water. Then they fed another bunch of rats the full serving of regular sugar you could find in a soda in a mix of water. Both got a regular diet of feed.

They did a short term and a long term study.

The rats on only HALF the amount of HFCS gained 48% more weight than those not on it. Correct me if I'm wrong on the wording, but that's the basic gist.

What.

The.

Fuck.


It causes abnormal weight gain, especially around the waist, and odd deposition of weight. So right now, I'm furious at those stupid commercials on television. The ones with the false advertising saying sugar and HFCS are exactly the same? Fuck you guys.
