A member asked:
Is it advisable to completely avoid drinks with high fructose corn syrup?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily: You are unlikely to be "allergic" to this sugar and although it has a high calorie to sweetness ratio it is just a simple food source. A diet composed of high quality carbohydrates fats and proteins is likely to support the healthiest lifestyle. However, an occasional intake of this sugar source is of no consequence to most.
