High Fructose Corn Syrup Podcast
High Fructose Corn Syrup Podcast
Sweeteners such as high fructose corn syrup are used in many foods. Everything from soups to salad dressings seem to include it in varying amounts. Consumption of high fructose corn syrup has gone up dramatically since it was created in the 1960s. Speculation exists that the rise in obesity rates corresponds directly with the increased use of this sweetener although research has yet to definitively support this theory.
In this podcast interview, registered dietitian and nutrition therapist Mary Beth Sodus from the Center for Weight Management and Wellness at the University of Maryland Medical Center, discusses how high fructose corn syrup is made and why many food companies use it. She also shares some of the advice she gives her weight loss patients about high fructose corn syrup.
