2015-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Sugars containing fructose are emerging as the dominant public health targets for their role in the epidemic of overweight and obesity. This position is largely supported by ecological observations, rodent models of overfeeding and select human trials. Higher level evidence from systematic reviews and meta‐analyses of controlled dietary trials has yet to show convincingly that fructose‐containing sugars behave dif...
