Why this Sweetener is Evil

Fructose is evil!

It’s directly linked to fatty liver.  It’s connected with obesity and type 2 diabetes. It’s inflammatory.

For example, did you know that fructose stops the liver’s ability to absorb fat?  Glucose doesn’t do that. That’s specific to fructose. Today’s epidemic of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is coming directly from the crap food and drinks people are drinking.

And it’s really hurting people’s livers. These days NAFLD is the second most common cause of liver transplant. And it’s happening to people who are not alcoholics.

Open your arteries, improve blood flow for a new health miracle...

Did you know your circulatory system has over 60,000 miles of arteries, veins and other blood vessels, if stretched end to end?

But as you age, your blood vessels undergo changes, which may cause them to stiffen, thicken and get clogged.

GOOD NEWS! Doctors have now identified a “Miracle Molecule” inside your arteries that helps OPEN your arteries and IMPROVE blood flow.

It’s what Dr. Valentin Fuster calls it, "One of the most important discoveries in the history of cardiovascular medicine."To you, that means...

  • Healthy blood pressure
  • Sharper mind and memory
  • Skyrocketing energy and muscular strength
  • Increased pleasure and passion in the bedroom
  • Improved circulation to every cell and organ in your body

Go here to discover a new natural way to significantly boost the levels of this miracle molecule in YOUR body NOW!

Just think about this. Alcohol has been linked to liver problems for centuries. But NAFLD was so uncommon that it wasn’t even given a name until 1980. Coincidentally high fructose corn syrup was introduced to the food and beverage industry in the 1970s.

Now, NAFLD accounts for about 34% of people on the liver transplant waiting list. Another 40% of people on the transplant list have alcohol related liver disease. So the gap between the two has narrowed dramatically in a very short time.

Just imagine the risk people are putting on their livers if they are heavy drinkers of both alcohol and high fructose soft drinks!

And you can’t argue the association between fructose and obesity. It’s pure fact. And the link between obesity and type 2 diabetes is clear. You can’t argue that, either.

But did you know that obesity and diabetes both contribute to NAFLD too? How’s that for a vicious string of outcomes.

Even worse, fructose makes the immune system inflamed, which makes more reactive molecules that are filled with even more inflammation. It goes on and on until you get something similar to a cytokine storm; uncontrolled inflammation that’s going to damage your tissues, organs and body systems.

The World's Quickest Solution for Ending Prostate and Urinary Misery

This has recently been revealed to be one of the only real breakthroughs in prostate health.

The seeds of a strange fruit (sometimes called "Chinese Apples") hold powerful phytonutrients that are a revolution in prostate health.

In fact, UCLA and Veterans Administration research have now proved this to be true.

Not only that, but it may be the worlds quickest solution for ending prostate misery.

Simply stated, these phytonutrients represent a huge step beyond beta sitosterol, saw palmetto, and other phytosterols alone.

How can Fructose be Bad if it’s in Fruit?

Getting too much fructose from fruit is hard to do for several reasons.

When you bite into a fresh fruit, you’re eating a synergistically nutritious whole food. All of the elements – the vitamins, minerals, water, antioxidants and other nutrients – work together to provide a profound health benefit.

Plus, fruit comes with all-important fiber. This slows down digestion of the sugar so that you don’t end up getting wildly high spikes of blood glucose and insulin.

When you eat a processed food with fructose in it, you get an entirely different response. The food itself probably has no nutritional value. No fiber. Nothing at all to offset the fructose load.

Now your liver has to go to work to metabolize all that extra fructose. But it gets overloaded. When that happens, it turns the fructose into fat. And this goes right back to the fatty liver problem we have here in the U.S.

You can probably already guess which foods are more likely to have a lot of fructose in them. Candy, soda, baked goods, frozen snack foods, breakfast cereals, snack bars. You can even find it in things you don’t know are sweetened, like salad dressings, sauces, nutrition bars and juices. So read your labels.

Let’s get Evil Fructose out of Your Diet

Instead of grabbing nutrition and granola bars when you need a snack, go for fresh fruits instead. Nuts, berries, veggies with hummus and other natural foods are all great.

As far as soft drinks and juices are concerned? I’d skip the soda altogether. Try sparkling water with berries, mint or citrus to give it a nice flavor. Iced tea is always good. So is water with lemon or lime. For your fruit juices, just make sure they are 100% pure and natural with a low sugar content.

When you do want to add some sweetness to something, I’d stick with natural options. Organic, pure can sugar is definitely better than fructose or artificial sweeteners. Organic honey is another option. And there’s always stevia.

Just make sure you don’t go with artificial sweeteners. They come with an increased chance of weight gain, obesity, heart disease and diabetes. Remember, when you have a choice it’s always better to go natural.
