Do you think High-fructose corn syrup plays a big role in US obesity?

I think it has to do a lot more with people rather than the ingredients. Anything will cause you to gain weight if not eaten in moderation. You can eat 20apples a day & gain weight. I think people have no self control when it comes to food & they just pig out without exercising. You cant expect to eat like a donkey & look like an ant :)

Yes I agree, but I grew up with if it taste good spit it out. I have study that the body digest and absorbs High-fructose corn syrup much easier then natural sugars. Plus this sweetener makes you want to eat more, it actually makes you hungrier, and I would like to see if there is more info to support or defend this view.

I just think that peoples eating habbits and lack of exersize is the main reason.

Yep that’s the pro with sugary cereals, u may have eaten them but u will get hungry sooner cuz wats makein u feel full is the sugar, that’s wat I have hear

Very true, it has a lot to do with self control, but I know I could not sit down and eat 20 apples in a sitting, but there are candies with a lot more sugar in it but much easier to consume in high volumes. Plus It I think 20 apples would help clean your body out.

I have read somewhere, I don’t remember where, that said McDonald’s puts sugar in most all there food.

yes i do and . its really bad for teeth to

Thep thr r only 3 items at mc donalds that don’t have sugar in it, that terrible

That is why I nor my kids eat there, most things we eat are home cooks, and we try to get mostly natural foods, avoiding processed foods like the plague.

That’s what I do cook at home and no eating out
