@Aniela: Hi Aniela! I am going to be publishing the next couple of articles tomorrow, and there will be a ton of references there, including the Bray study which was the big one that kicked off a lot of discussion.

Thanks to everyone for your comments. Glad to see that the opposing school of thought (that the ads are not legit) is alive and well!

I’m really sorry if you mentioned this already, but where can we read studies on HFCS? I saw this commercial last week and was pretty disturbed and interested in boning up on my knowledge of this subject. I’ve been really working toward a more natural diet for a while now and am always seeking out solid research on the subject of diet.

Oh, I almost passed out when thinking about all the Dr. Pepper I used to drink! Whew, that was a close call! My wake up call came when I took a trip to Cancun just before my 40th birthday and came back with what they misdiagnosed as lymphoma. I completely have completely changed my eating habits over the last 8 years, and the first thing to go was the soda. Unfortunately, I wasn’t aware of the HFCS until a year ago, but since then I have lost 65 lbs!

Haven’t seen the ads, but sure enjoyed your passionate response to them. Looking forward to the next sections!

It’s amazing how prevalent it is in all the foods we consume. Almost everything that’s packaged and sweet has it as a main ingredient. Back to the paleolithic diet I guess.

Well, obviously America is not asleep at the wheel when it comes to the dangers of HFCS or these commercials wouldn’t be running. People have started to actually demand foods without HFCS and it must be biting the corn growers in the wallet.

I would say that Drs.Oz and Roizen who have been tauting the sinister effects of HFCS on the Oprah Show as well as the Discovery Health Network are probably partly responsible for people becoming aware that they should not be consuming this faux-food. Since they seem to have access to high visibility programming I hope they keep pushing their whole foods agenda!

Thanks for the fabulous article. Can’t wait to read the rest.

Great post! I have to say, I have been really annoyed with those commercials. As soon as they came on I really felt sick to my stomach. Marys last blog post..Free WiFi! Free Magazines! More Swimming!
