Paragraph 1
Scientists have discovered that fructose, a
occurring sugar, is a major
of obesity. Fructose is also known as "fruit sugar". It occurs to varying
in fruit and vegetables. It is also used in processed
in high fructose corn syrup, which is in a
of the food we eat, and promotes obesity. A study led by Dr Richard Johnson at the University of Colorado found that although fructose isn't the biggest
of calorific intake, it stimulates an urge to eat
food. Researchers posited a shift of
on what we eat. They wrote: "All hypotheses recognize the
of reducing 'junk' foods, [however] it remains unclear whether the focus should be on reducing [fructose]
."
