Although “fructose is fructose” regardless of the source, when it is ingested in highly concentrated amounts as occurs with high-fructose corn syrup, the ballgame changes and problems arise.

Recent research indicates that the liver converts fructose, increasingly used in modern diets, into nutrients that promote tumor growth in several cancers, suggesting new dietary strategies and ...

The findings also suggested that fructose promotes an inter-organ metabolic mechanism where liver-derived lipids support tumor growth, independent of direct fructose metabolism by cancer cells.

Fructose consumption has increased considerably over the past five decades, largely due to the widespread use of high-fructose corn syrup as a sweetener in beverages and ultra-processed foods. New ...
