I decided to write about this topic because I felt that this information was not getting out fast enough to the majority of the people, who then would not be made fully aware of the dangers, which High Fructose Corn Syrup can cause to their health.
I will begin by discussing the reason that this product has been replacing sucrose (Table sugar). From what I have been able to gather as the reason why sucrose is being replaced by fructose, is because of the government subsidies of corn, and an import tariff on foreign sugar that has been causing the price of sucrose to rise to higher levels, which is above the price of other parts of the world, which makes High fructose corn syrup more cost effective for many sweetener applications.
Now that we know why companies are using fructose instead of sucrose, which is to save the company money, we will now discuss why it is not a good enough reason for those companies to use that product.
There is new evidence, which suggests that High fructose corn syrup, is linked to pancreatic cancer. Now before you start disagreeing with me about this disturbing news, you should also know that this has already been reported by Reuters.
This product also contributes to obesity, which can lead to diabetes. It can also cause liver disease. You should also be aware that High fructose corn syrup is produced from Genetically modified corn, which has the potential to change our DNA.
Luckily I had decided a while back not to include High fructose corn syrup in my diet, before I had found out about the cancer link. I have also given up wheat and grains. Of course, making this healthier choice for myself has limited my choices of food and drink, but it also means that I am a lot healthier than I was before I changed my diet.
The best defense that we have for ourselves is to read the labels before we purchase our food and drink items. We need to do this for ourselves and for our family. I guarantee that you will begin to feel a lot better, within a matter of months.
Please take the time to view this video because it will literally help to save your life.
Even if it means that you will be giving up many of your favorite foods to prevent yourself and your family from developing pancreatic cancer and liver disease, I hope that you will join me and only purchase products without High fructose corn syrup, so that you and your family can live a longer healthier life.
