Then I noticed that I was starting to eat less. Where I used to have a couple of PB&J's for lunch, one was fine. And so on. The only change was no HFCS.
Then I started to pay attention when *I* needed to do the grocery shopping. HFCS is in everything!! Soda? Of course, no surprise there. Peanut Butter and Jelly? Sure, makes sense. But bread? Ketchup? Pickles and Relish? I started wondering if there's something to all this.
There are other HFCS-free choices, but you need to look.
Meanwhile, I've lost a bunch of weight and I feel better in general. More energy. Was it because of a general change of habits for the better? Or cutting out HFCS? Probably both, but cutting out the HFCS sure makes sense to me.
I agree with you totally, I avoid HFCS and I lost a lot of weight and changed my eating habits. I specifically avoid it and I am not a sweet tooth junkie as well.
Doctor visit was fun after losing 50 lbs over a year, removing products with HFCS and eating only if hungry, eat less and watching sugars overall. He asked me how I did it and I told him about HFCS and avoiding it and reducing carbs and eating fruit versus other junk. They also in too much feed bad bacteria in your gut and they can be converted to alcohol by them.
