Studies in rats have found that consuming
fructose can
lead to insulin resistance, resulting in diabetesANCHOR.
The dangers of excess
fructose have been widely cited and include increased
insulin resistance (which can
lead to type - 2 diabetes), raised uric acid levels, raised blood pressure, increased risk of fatty liver disease, and more.
One of the major reasons that some people accumulate more visceral fat than others can be from a high carbohydrate diet that
leads to insulin resistance over time (years of bombarding your system with too much sugars and starches for your pancreas
to properly handle the constant excess blood sugar)... and studies show that high
fructose intake particularly from high -
fructose corn syrup can be a major contributor
to excess visceral fat.
Although all sugar causes acne, is highly inflammatory and can induce
insulin resistance in high doses, only
fructose can
lead to the dreaded non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
The bottom line is:
fructose leads to increased belly fat,
insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome — not
to mention the long list of chronic diseases that directly result.
Beyond the harm
to your brain, it's well known in the research world that a high
fructose diet can also cause
insulin resistance in your body over time, and possibly
lead to type - 2 diabetes and extra body fat.
A high intake of
fructose can especially be problematic, as this can
lead to an increase in fat deposition in the liver and skeletal muscle, thus increasing the risk of
insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (1).
Once the liver starts getting overloaded,
fructose will be metabolized into fat rather than liver glycogen, which can
lead to obesity, the collection of fat around vital organs and
insulin resistance.
It's important
to realize that even though
fructose is relatively «low glycemic» on the front end, it actually reduces the receptor's affinity for
insulin,
leading to chronic
insulin resistance and elevated blood sugar.
While high
fructose agave syrup won't spike your blood glucose levels, the
fructose in it may cause mineral depletion, liver inflammation, hardening of the arteries,
insulin resistance leading to diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and obesity.
Aside from that point, there is increasing evidence that
fructose consumption can encourage
insulin resistance which can
lead to type 2 diabetes.
Consuming too much
fructose can be hard on the liver, and
lead to insulin resistance, metabolic problems, and weight gain.
Avoid
fructose as it
leads to insulin resistance.
Fructose specifically will
lead to fatty liver,
insulin resistance and eventually type 2 diabetes.
The metabolism of excessive amounts of
fructose leads to fatty liver, which is a key step in the development of
insulin resistance, as we saw in our last post.
Fructose overconsumption stimulates fatty liver and
leads directly
to insulin resistance.
The present review will discuss the trends in
fructose consumption, the metabolic consequences of increased
fructose intake, and the molecular mechanisms
leading to fructose - induced lipogenesis,
insulin resistance and metabolic dyslipidemia.
Hepatic
fructose metabolisum
leads to all the manisfestations of the Metabolic Syndrome: hypertension, de novo lipogenesis, dyslipidemia, and hepatic steatosis, inflammation, hepatic
insulin resistance, obesity, CNS leptin
resistance promoting continuous consumption.
Sugar and high -
fructose corn syrup, because of the unique way in which we metabolize
fructose and at the levels we now consume it, cause fat
to accumulate in our livers followed by
insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, and so trigger the process that
leads to heart disease, diabetes and obesity.
It very well may be true that sugar and high -
fructose corn syrup, because of the unique way in which we metabolize
fructose and at the levels we now consume it, cause fat
to accumulate in our livers followed by
insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, and so trigger the process that
leads to heart disease, diabetes and obesity.
