Episode 3370:

Joe Leech breaks down the long-standing debate around high-fructose corn syrup, revealing that it’s nearly identical to regular sugar in both structure and health effects. By cutting through common misconceptions, he shows that the real issue isn’t the type of sugar, but how much you consume.

"High-fructose corn syrup is a sugar-based sweetener, used in processed foods and drinks in the United States."

"In your digestive system, sugar is broken down into fructose and glucose, so corn syrup and sugar end up looking exactly the same."
