    @MattyParks12 @thesavvybox @hormonedietdoc @5MinuteBody Because you are making unscientific claims. A) making it sweeter it doesn’t make it a poison, it means you should consume less. Not sure how this is an excuse. B) your body can, from your taste buds to Microbiome. Learn this. https://t.co/s3k6nWaT4P https://t.co/BYFXUKkK19

Abstract Synopsis

  • The source of dietary sugars, such as fruit, fruit juice, honey, or sugar-sweetened beverages, can influence how our bodies respond physiologically, affecting factors like blood sugar control, blood pressure, and inflammation.
  • The review highlights that elements like the physical structure of the food, its fiber, potassium, and polyphenol content may explain differences in health responses, with whole fruits generally having more favorable impacts than juices or processed sugars.
  • While short-term evidence suggests distinctions in responses based on sugar source, more research is needed to understand long-term effects and the specific mechanisms involved.]
