High-Fructose Corn Syrup consumption in the U.S.

New scientific evidence suggest consumption of high-fructose corn syrup is linked to growth in obesity.

High-Fructose Corn Syrup accounts for 40% of the sweeteners used in the U.S. This product is used in a large number of packaged foods including: sodas, ketchups and condiments, salad dressings, canned soups, bread, and more. Consumption of High-Fructose Corn Syrup has increased to 60 pounds per person per year.

Several scientific research suggest High-Fructose Corn Syrup may undergo a different metabolic pathway and stored as fat, while regular glucose is either stored as glycogen in the muscle and liver or used as direct source of energy.

Several published academic research suggest a link between increasing consumption of High-Fructose Corn Syrup and growth of obesity in the U.S. The percentage of people who meet the definition of obesity have increased to above 30% of the population during the last 30 years.

A recent study published by researchers at Princeton University Department of Psychology and Neuroscience Institute shows that eating a High-Fructose Corn Syrup diet cause typical signs of human metabolic syndrome such as abnormal gain in abdominal fat and increasing levels of blood triglycerides (Hoebel B.G. et al. Pharmacology, Biochemistry and Behavior Volume 97, Issue 1, November 2010).
