You see, what happens is when you consume too much fructose, the liver glycogen gets full and it triggers an insomatic process that tells the body to start storing the extra
fructose as body fat.
Not exact matches
It is an interesting one, Sarah's position is in line with David Gillespi and focuses on how the
body turns
fructose straight into
fat (
as well
as the issues it has w refined sugars) and is based on how our
bodies used it back in caveman times — interesting ideas.
Unlike glucose, which serves
as fuel for the
body,
fructose is processed almost entirely in the liver where it is converted to
fat.»
Interesting to note that for athletes
fructose does have an especially positive effect on replenishing glycogen stores in the liver
as the
body becomes energy depleted, instead of the
fructose becoming
fat as is the case for energy replete people.
As I've said before, anything loaded with trans
fats (like deep fried food) or high
fructose corn syrup (in sodas) are the absolute worst things you can put in your
body.
It is metabolized to
fat in your
body far more rapidly than any other sugar, and, because most
fructose is consumed in liquid form,
as fruit juice or
as soda, its negative metabolic effects are significantly magnified.
Our
bodies are adapted to gaining weight from fruits (because they are usually ripe at the end of summer and we are used to gain weight before the winter), and our
bodies induce insulin resistance and secrete insulin when we ingest
fructose to store it
as a
fat, not to burn it to get energy.

Should we alter the ketagonic diet to be more plant based and focusing on beans
as a source of protein and plants / nuts
as a form of
fat while avoiding anything that may provide glucose /
fructose to the
body?
-- Avoid white rice, refined flour products, high glucose / high
fructose syrup and sugar
as it contributes to cellulite by leading to nutritional deficiencies, inflammation, fluid retention, and storage of
body fat.
As long as it's not table sugar with large amounts of fructose that can hit the liver all at once (rather than be slowed by the fruit fiber), your low - fat body can take care of the sugar just fin
