I don't know if HFCS is hard on our bodies or not.

I do know that sugar is a quick way to getting fat and being fat can cause health problems.

I also know that HFCS is highly concentrated sugar meaning that a little can go a long way and adding a lot can really up the sugar content in a small serving of food.

So for me, I try to stay away from too many HFCS products because I know I'm getting a heavy dose of sugar-flavor in place of whatever other ingredients are listed.

If HFCS is "highly concentrated sugar", wouldn't you need a lot less of it to get the same impact as regular sugar? I don't understand your point.

Body doesn't know the difference

Both get broken down as glucose

At the end of the day it's calories in vs calories out. If your sweet foods have sugar or HFCS it doesn't matter
