    The couple of minutes the sucrase-assisted inversion takes will not save a diabetic.

      I'm not a biology teacher. Maybe google "blood sugar" and learn how it affects the body.


      Good god, are you claiming that the endothermicity of sucrose dissolution is important to human digestion?

          I dont think sugar spikes are bad just for diabetics, I doubt its good for the pancreas to be pumping out insulin in a mad rush to absorb Mt Dew

            Hmmm I dont recall saying those words

            I'm not the one who invented this "sugar is bad" idea. I'm just stating that HFCS is worse than regular sugar, even if only marginally

                  By "marginally" do you mean "the effects of consuming regular sugar are indistinguishable from the effects of consuming HFCS"? Why even cite HFCS as a factor in the rise of obesity if the difference is the tiny amount of energy needed to break apart sucrose?

                  There are largely genetic issues at play. In addition to that, the introduction of trans fats and high fructose corn syrup into the food supply caused a drastic increase. We're still at the early stages of fully understanding their effects on the human body. But those two substances basically tell the body to become fat, regardless of the amount that is consumed. Because of their prevalence in the food supply, most people develop weight issues as a result of them without knowing they were consuming such dangerous substances.

                  But then again, in the simpleton's mind, everything starts and ends with personal responsibility. So therefore, everyone is to blame for what happens to them.

                  It's a perfect ideology, really. Because the people that believe in such nonsense therefore are able to avoid all responsibility themselves for the problem... in the sense that the solution is political. And using the government to solve problems... well that's just WAH WAH FREEDOM THANKS OBAMA

                    but seriously, HFCS is bad even if I don't know why

                      It's an issue for putting on fat (and a lot of other things).

                      What is the body's reaction to a spike in blood sugar?

                          is it the fat or the repeated assaults on the pancreas that produces diabetes?

                            This one was canon for a while. It was the result of science, which was subsequently overturned but not before screwing with the healthy diets of a lot of people.

                              It's not the fat stored. It's the process that leads to the fat being stored. Or simply, it's the resistence iof the body to the assault of the pancreas. maybe.
