you people need to take the time and watch this. take the time and read any of the other evidences put forward by me and others. You guys are going around and around talking about what you think is the nutritional truths about HFCS and sugar. APPLES AND ORANGES, so drop it, and read up.

I said it several times now, i am still waiting for one fucking iota of evidence for anything backing up what you guys are claiming. This request conveniently gets glanced over.

If you want to make claims on here or anywhere on the internets, nobody fucking cares that you are health nut, you are ripped, and you work out or think you know something about nutrition, to the point where you can make population-wide observations. congrats to you, i applaud your efforts, i work out too. BUT you are not doctors that i am aware of, and you have not performed any sort of population research or experiments of your own, and published any finding.

The fact is, that HFCS is "bad" for you, AND is a major contributor to the obesity epidemic around the WORLD, for SO MANY REASONS, including that

A) it is addictive. The earlier you get it, the more prone you are to LIFE LONG addiction. You get it in the womb, it starts quite early.

B) it also tricks the brain into thinking you are not full, or that you are still hungry, even further expanding on the vicious circle.

C) it is everywhere. drop the sodas and the junk food "argument" already. It is hiding in 99% of all foods in the HEALTH FOOD aisle, masquerading as fucking HEALTH FOOD and everything in . Aforementioned Joe Idiot hasn't a chance because when he thinks he is making the right choices he is STILL getting fucked by uncle sam (FDA) and food corps.

This is just partly why it is not about choice. It's about fucking ultimate greed. It is a conspiracy and it is not so secret anymore. NEW COKE was the smoking gun in the 80's. (to quote the M.D. speaker in the video.)

Yeah? 99%?

Prove it.

I eat 6 times a day...every day...and it's not in anything I eat. Trust me. I look.

Conspiracy? Really? I always wondered what happened to Baby Gorrilla/ZeroNetGain....I guess now I know. Do you have trouble seeing out from under that tin foil hat?

(And while I'm here I guess I should ask the obvious question....are you a fatty?)

i put 99% because it seemed like the most obvious figure that was made up to emphasize my point. I will be the first to admit there is no statistic that came from, no research that i can point to for it. I would love to find and actual value of total products sold in the average supermarket VS total products sold in the average supermarket that are derived from corn. (or secondarily, contain HFCS)

laugh it off. I am not the one claiming it, but it is quite obvious. Read the fucking article, watch the fucking youtube video if you "don lack reedun much" , The MD giving the speech is who i paraphrased. Watch King Corn, it goes into more detail. Basically research fucking something and don't take my word for it, or anything else i am stating in this thread. But that's the problem here, nobody wants to look at what is provided, but rather shrug it off because you think know better.

(And while I'm here I guess I should ask the obvious question....are you a fatty?)
why is that the obvious question? am I overweight? yes. am I obese? no. Do i work out 6 days a week? yes. Do I eat better than almost everyone i know, cutting out almost all corn related products, NEVER drinking soda, eating sweets, or fast food? yes. whats your point?

Even if soda only contained sugar, it's still fucking stupid to drink. That's gonna be at least 50g of pure sugar, along with acid that can damage your teeth and stomach lining. Last I checked nobody here was a teenager anymore, so put the soda down.

Its no use man, its a conspiracy to make people unhealthy. Can't you tell? Willpower and common sense are not allowed to prevail while grocery shopping, and the food industry is to blame for greed.

Oh, and sugar is perfectly safe, and doesnt raise blood sugar levels, causing the body to store fat. You see, every fact we have on how the body burns and stores fuel is thrown out the window because of a study on HFCS, because Avatard says so.

Will Power? Common sense? Nutritional education? What are those things! Theres only greedy fucks looking for someone to blame for their fat asses!

Lets blame HFCS, and not the 24 cans of soda and 8 boxes of mini cakes they bought and drank this week! It would be unfair to blame them for buying it!

And another thing...it's not just in sodas. It's in FUCKING EVERYTHING.

Avoiding HFCS in even moderate amounts (now known to cause obesity) just isn't that easy. It's in everything. It's nearly unavoidable.

I've had three meals so far today.

I have had no HFCS.

None planned for the rest of the day either.

It's not REALLY that hard to avoid it.

What did you eat, and how are you so sure?

So far...

Cereal with blueberries for breakfast.

Grapefruit.

Raw carrots, celery and green beans.

Pork sandwich for lunch (sprouted rye bread).

Orange.


I am sure because except for the cereal and Almond Milk (I checked the ingredients) none of it came from a box.

There seems to be an opinion, in this country at least, that reading the ingrediants makes you a nerd or snob or whatever. I call it basic common sense. I mean, the literacy rate in this country is like 99% right? So what's stopping you? If you can read enough to read the TV Guide, you can read the fucking ingrediants.

Oh, and..........Vegetables, dried beans, oatmeal, rice, eggs, meat of any kind..........No HFCS in those.
