A group of Princeton researchers recently discovered that rats given HFCS gained more weight that rats given table sugar even when calorie intake was identical. While it’s chemically similar to sugar, our bodies process HFCS in different ways. HFCS is especially prevalent in packaged foods. Read ingredient lists of items you regularly buy like juice, cereal, sliced bread, flavoured yogurt etc. and opt for foods not containing HFCS.
