High Fructose Corn Syrup --- Considerably More Weight Gain - long

if fructose would trigger obesity why do fruit eating monkeys not get fat?

Could it be due to factors such as:
The fiber in fruits slows down the absorption of fructose which is
essentially considered a toxin by the liver. This would give the liver
more time to metabolize the fructose. Fruits also provide antioxidants
that may neutralize ROS created during the detoxification of fructose.
Fruits provide various chemicals that supress the production of ROS
via Nox by inhibiting PKC. Fruits provide fermentable fiber and its by-
products, short-chain fatty acids also inhibit PKC. When the liver is
stressed, it probably releases chemicals (ie uric acid) that signals
other parts of body (ie endothelial) to generate more ROS (ie via
Nox).

A hundred grams of apple contains 5.90 grams (1/6 of an ounces) of
fructose, additionally, fruit is seasonal. Nine months of the year,
there is typically no fruit. Enjoy it while you can.

nearly year round

Pediatric Research: April 2010
Fructose, but Not Dextrose, Induces Leukocyte Adherence to the
Mesenteric Venule of the Rat by Oxidative Stress

Abstract
Recent evidence indicates that fructose is a pro-inflammatory
molecule. Oral fructose induces serum and kidney inflammatory
intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in rats. Fructose also
induces ICAM-1 expression in human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) and
monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in proximal tubular renal cells. It
is not known whether fructose may directly promote inflammation on the
intestinal microcirculation. Accordingly, using intravital microscopy
we studied the effect of topical fructose and dextrose on leukocyte
adherence to the mesenteric venule of the rat. Leukocyte adherence was
determined during a control period and after fructose was added to the
mesentery, in the presence or absence of the NO donor spermine NONO-
ate (SNO), and after i.v. injection of the antioxidant lipoic acid
(LA). In separate experiments, we examined the effect of topical
dextrose on leukocyte adherence to the mesenteric venule. Venular
shear rate was calculated. Fructose, but not dextrose, induced
significant inflammation independent of shear rate. This effect was
completely blocked by SNO and LA, suggesting that fructose induces
inflammation via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. These
results suggest that fructose present in formulas may adversely affect
the intestinal microcirculation of premature infants and potentially
contribute to the pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).

We were talking about the real world, Bozo, you know, sun up, sun down,
spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The real world where plants blossom,
grow, fruit, and wither, not the human veneer that we pretend is real,
because it is only as real as we can make it, and when we are gone,
there will be the real world again. The world that we were born into,
and found contemptible.
However, it may be of aid to the rest of us, if you eat as much fructose
as possible, bon appétit.

Planes, trains, trucks and ships are such wonderfull things to be able
to bring us fresh blueberries from Chile in the middle of the northern
hemisphere's winter.

There's a sublte advantage to veggies from distant sources - The mineral
content of regional food can be deficient in specific trace minerals.
While we should not assume that veggies have the expected minerals
because of modern farming methods, modern import farming offsets that
problem. It's a small but real advantage.

Commercial agriculture destroys top soil. Chemical fertilizers, and
pesticides reduce phytonutrients (anthcyanins, flavonoids, ect.).
Shipping consumes fossil fuels, pollutes the environment, reduces
nutrients, and increases the chance of contamination. The best option is
to buy local and organic from a CSA.

Obviously, the very best produce comes from your own garden.

Unemployment is capitalism's way of getting you to plant a garden.

imagine, plant a garden.
