Quote from: "Diet Myths That Keep Us Fat" by Nancy L. Snyderman, M.D.

"In a study conducted at the University of California-Davis, those given fructose saw an increase in abdominal fat, the kind that wraps around your internal organs, causes a potbelly, and has been liked to an increased risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This did not happen with the group who consumed glucose, even though both groups gained around 4 pounds in weight."
