Corn and Its Industry: The Next Tobacco

Although I find the article filled with a large amount of hooey, I would recommend that you look at the studies on the effects of the high frutcose corn syrup. I'm not pretending to be a ntrition expert, but the implications of a number of these studies is that the body processes this sweetener differently than regular cane sugar. Some attribute the much higher diabetes rates to the now wide and increasing useage of the hfcs. As was also pointed out, the secondary and maybe much larger beneficiary of the limits on cane sugar imports have been the corn farmers. How much less would corn sell for if there was no market for the corn syrup as a sweetener?
