    Fructose doesn’t have the same health effects of sucrose for some reason

    That’s because fructolysis has a slightly different pathway and fate as compared to glycolysis, which results in far lower efficiency of conversion. Meaning glucose gets converted into more calories than fructose does.

      Fascinating! It is astounding to me how we know some of this stuff and how there is so much we have left to discover
