“Not surprising at all, since Honey is natures HFCS.”
No, honey is not natures HFCS...HFCS is a manufactured monosaccharide called ‘fructose’, and has a detrimental effect on the liver. The monosaccharides in honey are levulose and dextrose, same as in fruit. There are also numerous other di and trisaccharides along with enzymes, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals in honey that are not in HFCS, the manufactured ‘fructose’.
Some reading this would say that levulose and fructose are the same thing...this is not so, though the use of the name levulose has been displaced by the name fructose to describe the sugar in honey and in fruit.
Man-made fructose would have to have the chemical formula changed for it to be levulose, so it is not levulose. Saying fructose is levulose is like saying that margarine is the same as butter.
Basically, modern humans overindulge in sweeteners and should cut back drastically.
