The Real Hidden Cause Of Obesity

The American Journal Of Clinical Nutrition does concur, as does the clinical study from the University of Pennsylvania, that the culprit at the front and back of the growing Obesity epidemic in North America is not carbohydrates bad as most are, and neither is it refined sugar which is also very bad for your health, but rather an extremely addictive designer chemical by the name of High-fructose corn syrup or HFCS for short.
The genetic manipulation additive
Be attentive to the proven fact that HFCS is not natural nor is it healthy at all, and shockingly there is so much of it routinely added to almost all processed foods and processed beverages that you do ingest. That wicked practice of HFCS as an additive to the food supply started during the Nixon presidential years, and you do find it even in foods labeled healthy and natural. In the time-interval of two decades 1970 t0 1990, consumption of this very unhealthy sweetener went up by a shocking 1000 percent, such that as you read this, the average North american unknowingly consumes a minimum of fifty-seven pounds of it per year.
Of course you are correct that this product is derived from cornstarch, however it goes through numerous layers of processing and genetic manipulation rendering it unnatural and truly unfit for human consumption. Extensive data compiled by the United States Department of Agriculture directly implicates and shows that high fructose corn syrup is at the bottom of skyrocketing obesity and diabetes.
Mechanism of obesity
In the Journal Of Clinical Endocrinal Metabolism, the exact machanism of how obesity is brought about is explained by the demonstrable fact that this artificial sweetener if you ingest it, dramatically increases the level of a compound called ghrelin, which in turn increases your desire to eat more. Simply put, it deliberately disrupts your body’s natural ability to indicate when you are satisfied and therefore should stop eating, thus leading you to gain weight and ultimately obesity.
Take a look at it from a different angle, namely that this bad sweetener oppositically manipulates levels of the very same compounds and hormones in your body that big-pharma is attempting to influence with the diet-pills. Therefore, instead of causing you a loss of appetite and weight loss, HFCS pulls you in the opposite direction of increased appetite and the inevitable weight gain and ultimately obesity. Reader, you may have sensed that there are in effect “two different hands of the same source”, each pulling you in turn in an opposite direction of the other. Now then, Who Benefits?
The syrup magicians
The corn syrup people are very slick with their smoke and mirrors act, blaming you for lack of exercise and increased colorie consumption as the cause of your weight gain and thus obesity, and then blame you for your inability to lose weight. Then there is another corn syrup wool over your eyes act, that the syrup is good for diabetics because it does not raise insulin levels, and neither does it raise levels of another compound, leptin. Now in slow motion, watch the sleight of hand; do you recall the genetic manipulation in paragraph three above?. You definitely need an increase in both those compounds as need be, because they are the ones responsible for signalling your central nervous system to stop eating, yet HFCS deliberately functions to put a brake on them. It does get worse as the craving you get is for the bad foods that you don’t need. And such foods/beverages have hidden additives in them, Why?
