[QUOTE="emapples, post: 3045137, member: 11752"] This depends on what you call “sugar” but if you are referring to table sugar (what we typically buy for home use) its referred to as refined sugar it’s 99.9% sucrose (if it’s Domesticaly sourced from Cargill, United, Amalgamated, Imperial, Florida Crystals, C&H and most of these are one company) and I know I am correct on this, I deal with sugar day in day hout. Where Fructose comes to play is corn syrup or high fructose corn syrup they you have crystalline fructose (refined from corn syrups). I will agree that fructose is worse than sucrose (but by a thin margin) but sucrose spikes blood sugar pretty quickly and has 16 calories per teaspoon. Simply put it’s converted to stores fat if you aren’t burning it instantly, complex carbohydrates are better for us all and neither sucrose or fructose fit in that category. I’ve even seen some people, pushing for sugar to be considered a drug...... [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2235907/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
