The Popular Food That's Just as Damaging as Alcohol and Goes Straight to Fat

Can you guess what food is this?

From Dr.Mercola Magazine Sept 9, 2012

What is this?  It is fructose

It shares the same characteristic as alcohol;

l.  Like alcohol, it is only metabolized at the liver;

2.  Fructose, like alcohol undergoes Maillard reaction which produces superoxide free radicals, and with byproducts of ethanol (alcohol) as a byproduct;

3.By stimulating the brain (to produce instant sweet effect);  fructose creates habituation and dependence.

Be careful when taking your junk food, cakes or softdrinks;  they may contain fructose which is just as harmful as alcohol

Substitute sugar:

1.  Dextrose (pure glucose) that may be used directly by your body and

2.  Stevia
