Abstract

The article discusses the role that fructose consumption plays in cardiometabolic disease risk. It comments on a study examining the effects fructose consumption had on body composition and found a significant increase in the accumulation of visceral adipose tissue. It states fructose consumption led to dyslipidemia but glucose consumption didn't appear to influence lipids. It reports on a study of weight gain in children which concluded weight gain was more closely related to excess calories.
