Glucose Metabolism Pathway
Fructose or fruit sugars can cause metabolic syndrome, hypertension and even diabetes leading to weight gain?
Fact. “The only metabolic pathway open to fructose is that which ends up in fatty acid production. And remember, excessive fatty acid and triglyceride levels are convincingly tied to development of the metabolic syndrome, hypertension, glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes.” And,
“The rapid and poorly controlled metabolism of fructose in the liver leads to increased hepatic lipogenesis, dyslipidemia and increased storage of fat in the liver. Increased lipid levels are associated with insulin insensitivity and, therefore, development of metabolic syndrome and type two diabetes. Clearly, today’s sucrose and fructose enriched diets are a threat to health.”
Is this true?
What the hell are you talking about, John?
That’s someone else’s post and I’m asking how accurate it is.
