That old Villain Fructose is exposed as the ‘Dark Lord’ of the sugar family.

Fructose linked to gene damage


Fructose is a natural sugar commonly found in fruits, corn and plants. So.. it’s ‘natural’, right? Must be Ok, right? 

Wrong. Especially now it’s used in many processed and ultra-processed food products and soft drinks as a cheap sweetener, usually in the form of high-fructose corn syrup.

Previous studies have already found it to be to be hazardous to health, leading to insulin resistance, obesity and elevated blood pressure to name just a few.
A new study has increased this list further. Scientists at the University of California found that, “A diet high in fructose can kill hundreds of genes in a way that could lead to several diseases”. Interestingly, the researchers found an omega-3 fatty acid, docosahexaenoic acid(DHA), was able to go some way to reversing the effects.

In our opinion it’s perhaps the most insidious element of the ongoing acid assault on our health and wellbeing. because it’s mainly in fruit, we see it as healthy.
Here’s a chart that assists us to work out just how much of this is sneaking into our systems via our fave fruits and smoothies.How_much_fructose_day
