Refined White (cane) sugar is sucrose. period. As I said, pure fructose is far better for you that any combination of sucrose/glucose and fructose, like corn syrop and white sugars made from sugar beets.

Cane sugar is the ultimate poison however.

Some white table sugars are as you say, contain both sucrose/glucose and fructose because the plant they are are refined from contain them as well. (beets, sweet potatoes, parsnips, onions).

Honey, tree fruits, melons, berries etc. also contain amounts of glucose/ sucrose, but are mostly fructose. Generally they are considered healthy, unless of course you over indulge, like anything else.

Some? Chemistry 101 is needed here.

White sugar is sucrose. It breaks down into fructose and glucose. Honey can be just about any combo of sucrose, glucose or fructose, depending on the floral source and the time the bees have to work it.

Beet sugar is sucrose after refinement.

Most natural sugars, including nectars, are sucrose.

There are just too many studies out on the health hazards of HFCS to promote it over sucrose.
