Fructose leads to Type 2 diab

Fructose, a sugar commonly seen in soft drinks and fruit juices, is believed to be dangerous as they contribute to obesity and Type 2 diabetes.

A study published in the Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications reveals that fructose tends to increase the appetite. The John Hopkins University’s school of medicine has said that high consumption of fructose was more dangerous than other forms of sugar as it affected the brain more severely.

While glucose, which is also a form of sugar, tends to decrease the appetite, Fructose only makes people eat more. Sugars are in general considered to stimulate the dietary behaviour, particularly the appetite.
The study says that when people consume more energy and become less active, ther is a tendency of gaining more weight and type 2 diabetes. It has been see that fructose can develop type 2 diabetes in younger people.
