Fructose: the poison index | Robert Lustig | Comment is free | The Guardian

Yes, fructose has a low glycaemic index of 19, because it doesn’t increase blood glucose. It’s fructose, for goodness sake. It increases blood fructose, which is way worse. Fructose causes seven times as much cell damage as does glucose, because it binds to cellular proteins seven times faster; and it releases 100 times the number of oxygen radicals (such as hydrogen peroxide, which kills everything in sight). Indeed, a 20oz soda results in a serum fructose concentration of six micromolar, enough to do major arterial and pancreatic damage. Glycaemic index is a canard; and fructose makes it so. Because fructose’s poisonous effects have nothing to do with glycaemic index; they are beyond glycaemic index.
C’est à la mode donc une étude pubmed a essayé de faire un point des arguments : ▻https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22617566
Résultat : c’est prématuré de vouloir en tirer des conclusions pour changer notre alimentation car pas assez de données pour étayer un réel problème pour l’instant. To be continued ?
