I guess you are a Coca Cola employee. If HFCS is so close to cane sugar, why do they taste so different. Blind fold me and I will bet you 10k that I can pick out the Mexican coke (if it has cane sugar in it). You are probably the same propagandist that tried to convince ppl that margarine is good and healthier than…

Will you just shut up already, what are you getting paid per comment. Stop regurgitating your bs over and over again.

You keep referencing studies with authors who have conflict of interest. Rippe and a number of other authors you cite is funded by people that utilized HFCS. Quit citing these people. Sorry, but your regurgitating what you don't know and your naive to think it is legitimate research when unbeknownst pepsi and coke and…

while I prefer not reference wikipedia in scientific discussion, you should read a little further instead of being an ideological buffoon .

So why are you pushing HFCS so feverishly? What benefit is there to eating HFCS? None except that it is cheaper and it actually could be worse for you. AND it is only cheaper because the government sinks a lot of subsidies into corn. I'd much rather pay a bit more and have the natural, healthy, known product in…

And this all falls back on the crux of absorption. If there is a slight delay in absorption, you avoid substrate overload.

sorry, PFK does not control absorption of intestine in the lumen. Your stretching. Fructose also does not enter glycolysis as fructose 6 phosphate, of which PFK acts upon to progress glycolysis. Fructose enters in as fructose 1 6 bisphosphate, a product of PFK on substrate fructose 6 phosphate.

Yeah sorry I'm not going to read all that. If I'm going to read a wall of text on HFCS I'll stick to peer-reviewed journals and skip what some shill wrote on a gizmodo article, especially knowing no matter what rebuttal I use you'll just come back and say you were implying something different.

"Dr. Rippe's research laboratory has received unrestricted grants and Dr. Rippe has received consulting fees from ConAgra Foods, Kraft Foods, PepsiCo International, the Corn Refiners Association"

Your link "advances.nutrition.org" article has the huge red flag at the bottom. "The symposium was sponsored by the ASN Medical Nutrition Council and supported in part by an educational grant from the Corn Refiners Association."

You appear to be having a difficulty with "implied" things.

David Johnson you speak with all the fervent devotion of a paid corporate shill.

Rare to have enantiomeric kinetics?... Look at research 101, thalidomide was a major faux pas in research. Penicillin enantiomers have different effects on bacteria, methadone is an enantiomer of heroine... it goes on. Your making generalizations that are unsubstantiated to fit your original claim of HFCS...

Must be an internet renaissance man, what university you from? and what is the name of the two studies you are working on and under what supervision?

"Sucrose is 100% molecularly identical to HFCS once it enters the bloodstream, hence my “exactly identical remark”."

"HFCS and cane sugar have the EXACT same molecular structure"... pretty sure molecular structure is determined by bonds, so EXACT isn't an accurate description. I understand what you said, but what you are implying is that all this fuss is non-sensicle. Like saying enantiomeric molecules shouldn't be fussed at, but in…

Who here thinks David Johnson works for Monsanto? LOL

Our precious stateside Mexican Coke will continue to be sweetened with 100 percent cane sugar.

We don't need to. I assume you meant the USA. There are plenty of other countries that can grow sugar cane. The only reason we rely on corn based sugars for food and fuel is due to tarrifs and subsidies. If we elimianted the government intervention, we'd be buying our sugar from Brazil at a lower price than corn…

Nope, still blaming Coke. They can still make it and sell it at a premium if needed be, and people would buy it. Just look at Pepsi Throwback, impossible to find on shelves half the time
