In addition to causing considerable weight gain in lab tests, long-term consumption of high-fructose corn syrup also led to abnormal increases in body fat, especially in the abdomen, and a rise in circulating blood fats called triglycerides.

For Today's Daily Action, learn why you should eliminate (or at least cut back) your consumption of high fructose corn syrup
