Re: fructose = toxic & addictive foods = chronicly high insulin levels = obesity



"> "Hmmmm..... And I've been told repeatedly about how it is all about
fats
and calories......"

What is "it"?

Weight management. D'uh!"

It is about calories, the article was about how some foods change the
usual feedback process that signals having consumed enough. "Toxic" and
"addictive" don't apply in this as any food can be toxic when used in
excess and no foods are addictive as that term is clinically defined.
Humans have a genetic disposition to crave salt and fat, but that is
still not addictive but does explain why both are often in snack foods.
