This is one study that we must
question. The doctor doing this study is heavily influenced by his
position since, “He is an advisor to the
food and beverage industry and has received unrestricted educational
grants from the Corn Refiners Association.”
Since high fructose corn syrup is a
product of industries represented by the Corn Refiners Association,
we know that this study is quite likely biased and may well be rigged
in results.
Rigged, yes, in a study only lasting 10
weeks, we must question the validity of the findings. This is not a
length that would give other than the findings reported. A study
lasting for one year or more would have given more trustworthy
results, but would have done more harm to the participants.
Therefore, I can only say this is
another junk science study and done by a person heavily indebted to
the Corn Refiners Association. This is another of those studies that
should have never made it into print. The study was done by James
Rippe, MD, professor of biomedical sciences at the University of
Central Florida and a paid consultant for the Corn Refiners
Association.
