Fructose is EVIL

I had time during our ride to Seattle to watch this and it blew me away! I have always believed that input = output when it comes to body weight/eating. IT'S NOT TRUE! Fructose changes everything. I heard something similar on NPR one time, but after watching this talk, I understand the chemistry.

Basically...fruit juice and anything with high fructose corn syrup is evil...it goes almost directly to fat. The key is to avoid fruit juice, corn syrup and eat a lot more fiber. He also talks about ethanol, another poison.

Bottom line fruit juice/fructose corn syrup = poison
(unless you are an elite athlete, of course)
