    It’s particularly high fructose corn syrup that’s real bad. I forget the specifics but the balance of fructose to sucrose is important to how our body processes it.

    Oh, and the rest of the nutrients in fruit help slow the digestion of the sugars and mitigate some of the bad effects. But if you extract the sugar, it’s not so healthy for you anymore.
