Since I promised to stay out of the other thread, but have been summoned

Read the Hyman report. He discusses this with two of the world's foremost experts on nutrition.

The only thing he CLAIMS is in HFCS the fructose and glucose aren't bound tightly like natural glucose-fructose. Of course that's total b.s., claiming the C-O-C covalent bonds are less tight, apparently because of some Archer Daniels Midland manufacturing magic that makes two physically identical molecules different.

Anyway, I dont think you can tell what or who you are arguing against at this point.

How much of that HFCS snake oil report did you read.

The web link was all I could take.

Did you notice who were used as sources? Experts in the field. A lot more credible than corporate lobbyists.

I'll go with neither group. Instead, I'll trust the scientists who don't have a stake on either side.

You're such a dick trying to prove everything I put on here is wrong to feed your arrogant, self-absorbed know-it-all ego.

Well, aren't you sweet.

I'm just trying to inform people,

If that were true, why are so you upset that you are resorting to name-caling when it turns out you are wrong?

not trying to show how smart I am like you, you POS, or maybe I should say, Trump Turd, that's even more disgusting.

I take your insults with all the seriousness you have earned over the years.

Yeah, that's believable. I did notice they did not run a similar scam on the makers of cane sugar or beet sugar, for control purposes.

I'm waiting for @Eenie-Meenie to explain why a corn-based food ingredient specifically needs to be tested for mercury, as opposed to every other foodstuff. If anything, manufacturing to selectively extract glucose-fructose from corn kernels would eliminate mercury and whatever other toxins (such as dioxins and furans) found in corn.

Mercola does make money but he is a sincere, honest person ...

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Thank you for that laugh.

For some people, mercury in the food is the source of all evil. You wouldn't believe how much these quacks make in giving chelation therapies to remove all the supposed excess mercury. Or, maybe you would.

If you eat too many calories, you will get fat. Sugar, regardless of the form, is energy. Refined from corn, or eaten straight, if you don't use that energy your body is going to store a healthy portion of it.

Sugars you get from two different plants aren't going to be identical. :| There's always going to be a variant.

I'm glad someone tested mercury levels, but I'm disappointed that you're trying to use one vat from one manufacturer as proof that every vat from every manufacturer does. I'm also disappointed that they resulted to fraud in obtaining their sample. Says a lot about the class of scientist.

Independent doesn't necessarily mean right or wrong by any any stretch of the imagination. Just that they're different.

HCFS is what it is; a different way to process sugar, and process it into state different than actual sugars. No ****, sherlock.

I'm willing to bet $ we could pick up any jar of corn syrup at a grocery store, have it tested for mercury at a certified lab, and there wouldn't be any mercury measurable above instrument baseline noise.

Actually, I might be a to contact a guy who used to run merc tests in an analytical lab I worked in. He used to test all sorts of stuff and would probably know.

Why don't you trust Dr. Hyman, he is far more authoritative than me. Check out his sources. Did you read the post on the link? Why are you so invested in trying to prove something I posted is wrong?

Sure! I'll start writing up letters to corn syrup manufacturers pretending to be a startup creating a next level vegan soda. How big do you think a vat is, excatly?

 

[Getting Traded]

I read what you posted. And with the data provided, I remain unconvinced any of that information confirms a meaningful problem that should dictate. I imagine this to be what it's like as a climate denier, only there's a helluva lot more science describing climate change than what your "physicians" are insinuating.

What level of informed consent do you think I should have to think you're too far off the rails?

Can you provide more specific detail? You talk in generalities here.

Why are the links he provides any more relevant than what a person can find on google scholar? Hyman's well known in his field... and not much of it's for something overly positive.

I guess you force me to do further more detailed research on this, and when I do, I'll get back to this topic because some of the comments related to chemistry I am not qualified to comment upon.

Really, can you give me some links?
