A member asked:
Does fructose cause diabetes? by causing it, i mean does it by itself lead to diabetes, or does it cause weight gain, which in turn causes diabetes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Increased total: Caloric intake, including fructose, leads to an increased predisposition for diabetes. That said, there is no nutritional value to ingesting fructose, although it is commonly present in many foods, particularly fruits.
