RE: They came for my salt shaker and then my sugar bowl

it is difficult to believe that fructose is the cause of diabetes. after all there are two normal sources of fructose in our diet and have been for eons. fructose is the sugar found in fruit, of which we have always eaten a lot. maybe you can blame eve and her apple for that. fructose is also half of the two sugars in gthe dimer sucrose, that old cane and beet variety. why then would we have to be leary of fructose, when even without high fructose corn syrup we would be getting plenty of it. it is also true that fructose intake is suggested for diabetics because it is metabolized more slowly probably because it is rearranged into glucose for the metabolism.
if you want to scare the bejesus out of people keep publishing crap(i won't use the term you so carefully removed from my post. are you afraid of the english language?) like that. i also noticed that you had little or nothing to say about the great salt debate, which itself is one of our most prevalent urban myths.
