In fact, market research often find that when an individual is exposed to a perceived 'healthier' option, they are likely to drink or eat more calories. High fructose corn syrup, which is made from corn, is no different from other common sugars such as honey and sucrose (table sugar) with regards to calories and even has a similar chemical make up with glucose and fructose. Research has proven that there is a not a single ingredient to blame for the plethora of health issues Americans face today. The real issue it at hand is the simple equation of calories coming in versus calories going out.
Healthy regards,
