It isn't just the fructose we eat. What we discovered was that the body can make fructose. And when the body makes fructose, you can get fat from the fructose you make. There's only one way to make fructose and you have to make it from glucose. And guess what? The best source of that is high glycemic carbs.

So when you eat bread and rice and potatoes and cereal and chips, even though they don't contain fructose, even though they don't contain sugar, you can still get fat from them because once you eat them, the glucose can be converted to fructose in the body and high glycemic carbs do it. Now, the other big discovery was dehydration.

So when you get dehydrated, that also stimulates the enzymes to convert glucose to fructose. And when we started studying this, we didn't really understand this, but we started saying this and it turns out that people who are overweight are almost always dehydrated. They're not drinking enough water.

And when we started studying this, we didn't really understand this, but we started saying this and it turns out that people who are overweight are almost always dehydrated. They're not drinking enough water.

In fact, one study showed that people who are overweight or obese tended to be 12 times more dehydrated than the lean people. So dehydration is very, very common. in people who are overweight. And the main reason they do that is it turns out that when you eat sugar, that dehydrates you. You think a soft drink hydrates you, it doesn't.

So when you eat salt, the salt concentration goes up in your blood and you get thirsty and you want to drink water. But the salt concentration in the blood activates a biologic pathway to make sugar. and it makes it from carbs. So that's why French fries are so bad because the salt in the French fry actually activates the enzyme to help convert the glucose in the French fry to fructose.

And that's why French fries, which have no sugar in them, no high fructose corn syrup, you know, but they're still bad because the salt activates this enzyme that converts the glucose to fructose.

well this morning i actually skipped breakfast and uh you know one of the things is you know it turns out that things like carb restriction and intermittent fasting and all these things that people are recommending they're they're pretty effective at losing weight and the carb restriction in particular is a very very helpful because it removes not only sugar but it reduces the amount of starch you're eating and remember the starch can be converted
