So, you are saying all sugar is bad?
Are you saying that fruit is bad because it has sugar in it?
I am so glad you came back to have a nice discussion.
srsly
He'd fail his own test.
you two fucking mensa members understand fructose from fruit and sweeteners and sucrose increase fat production? your body does not care where the sugar came from...all it knows is it is sugar.
WRONG, true, an intake of a certain types of sugar will give you an insulin spike which can result in fat gain however, the different varieties of sugar have a different effect, it's glucose and sucrose that contribute to the raising of blood sugar levels and should be generally avoided. Fructose does not have this effect and is sent to the liver to be metablolised. FYI This is a well known fact and should have been covered in high school biology classes.

Differential effects of honey, sucrose, and fructose on blood sugar levels.

Abstract
It is now recognized that dietary carbohydrate components influence the prevalence and severity of common degenerative diseases such as dental problems, diabetes, heart disease and obesity. Fructose and sucrose have been evaluated and compared to glucose using glucose tolerance tests, but few such comparisons have been performed for a "natural" sugar source such as honey. In this study, 33 upper trimester chiropractic students volunteered for oral glucose tolerance testing comparing sucrose, fructose and honey during successive weeks. A 75-gm carbohydrate load in 250 ml of water was ingested and blood sugar readings were taken at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 240 minutes. Fructose showed minimal changes in blood sugar levels, consistent with other studies. Sucrose gave higher blood sugar readings than honey at every measurement, producing significantly (p less than .05) greater glucose intolerance. Honey provided the fewest subjective symptoms of discomfort. Given that honey has a gentler effect on blood sugar levels on a per gram basis, and tastes sweeter than sucrose so that fewer grams would be consumed, it would seem prudent to recommend honey over sucrose.
