In my non-professional, ill-informed opinion, HFCS is at the heart of the obesity and T2 diabetes problems in this country. HFCS consists of both fructose and glucose. The ingestion of fructose does not trigger a release of leptin in your system. Leptin is a hormone that tells your body to stop eating when it’s full by signaling the brain to stop sending hunger signals.

With your brain not telling you to stop, you continue to ingest and people become obese and/or develop Type 2.
