HFCS has a higher level of fructose, and has been shown to increase triglyceride levels.

There are two forms of HFCS being used today. The first is HFCS 55(% fructose) which would offer a minute increase in the amount of fructose someone consumes vs. sucrose. However, there are a whole lot of products that use HFCS 42(% fructose) as a substitute for sucrose. Does that mean using this particular formulation of HFCS is better for you than sucrose?

To suggest that a meager increase in fructose consumption, that HFCS may or may not be responsible for, causes all sorts of afflictions from obesity to cancer is absurdity on parade and is nothing more than people trying to blame problems on something other than the cause.
