    Very interesting and inline with what the manufacturers have been pushing lately. But I didn't dig far enough to find the original research and whether/to what extent it was funded or driven by the corn producers and HFCS manufacturers. Personally I just can't tolerate much fructose of any kind (natural or refined) on a long run, but that's just me.

    I wish the faculty at the schools I'm applying to had websites that glossy!

    I couldn't find the paper that the article references, but the researcher is in the UK (so probably less corn industry funding!), and funding for a previous related study came from GSK.

    It makes sense. I don't know why that 2:1 ratio would make sense physiologically, but I'm working on that...
    At least I don't leave slime trails.
