Sweetener may cause health problems

A study has proved that  fructose,a corn-derived sweetener,used in thousands of food and drink products  can damage human metabolism and cause obesity.

Fructose can cause dangerous growth of fat cells around the liver,heart and digestive organs.
Fructose arrives intact in the liver causing abnormal reactions,including disrupting the mechanisms that tell the body to store or burn fat.

The study involved 16 volunteers on a strictly controlled diet,with high levels of fructose,whereas another group of volunteers were on same diet,but with glucose instead,the later volunteers did not get same problems.
