- Title
Limit Fructose, Lose Weight.
- Abstract
The article reports on the study conducted by Elizabeth Parks and colleagues at the University of Texas (UT) Southwestern Medical Center on trading the significance of fructose in losing weight in Texas. Researchers found that people who have low-carbohydrate diets lose weight because of their reduction in fructose intake. According to Elizabeth Parks, associate professor of clinical nutrition and lead author of a study, their study suggest that the right type of carbohydrates a person eats is just as important as the number of calories a person eats. They found that by limiting processed carbohydrates, many of which contain high-fructose corn syrup, help prevent weight gain.
