It's the amount of fructose going into the liver becoming triglycerides either making a fatty liver or contributing to obesity overall. Excess glucose can replace the glycogen, a carbohydrate that's the storage form of glucose, but it has a limited maximum amount, which is stored in the liver and muscles that's depleted with intense physical activity. Only when it gets too low that you switch into using free fatty acids do you start to deplete your fat stores, IIRC. It's a neet strategy for famines, but we haven't had too many lately.
It's not from a precautionary principle that makes me concernced. There's a good correlation between obesity, NAFLD, the epidemic of Type II Diabetes, formerly known as Adult Onset Diabetes, as well as MODY, Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young with the consumption of HFCS over the last few decades.
Parents can't use physical discipline with children any more, so the carrot and stick philosophy has been reduced to just carrots.
So I'm leary about HFCS-55. They use HFCS-42, 42 % fructose, in baked and processed stuff that you eat. I doubt an occasional treat will kill you.
