Eric 2011-06-03T05:55:54Z 2011-06-03T07:02:55Z <p>All that I need to know is to say no to fructose as a food additive.</p> <p>For Paleo types like us Fructose is not usually consumed as a food additive because it is usually in pre-packaged foods containg vegetable oils wheat etc... We would never ues it to cook with for sure... </p> <p>Given a choice we would pick a fruit with vitamin C or something better than just fructose as food additive.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/41842/for-fat-loss-moderate-natural-fructose-consumption-is-superior-to-low-fructose/41885#41885 Answer by JakeA for For fat loss, moderate natural fructose consumption is superior to low fructose?

It seems pretty logical in the paleo perspective that fruit is better than grains.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/41842/for-fat-loss-moderate-natural-fructose-consumption-is-superior-to-low-fructose/74043#74043 Answer by Dr G for For fat loss, moderate natural fructose consumption is superior to low fructose? Dr G 2011-11-01T09:30:07Z 2011-11-01T09:30:07Z <p>Try yacon syrup - its an oligofructosaccharide - a type of fructose that doesnt get absorbed by the blood stream and instead goes to your bowel and feeds the good bacteria like acidophilus bifudus- also helps calcium absorbtion - virtually no calories - tastes a bit like concentrated apple syrup - nice all round sweetener - 100% natural from the yacon root- dont eat yacon powder its usually the leaves which have recently be found to be toxic. The root is an andean vegetable used for thousands of years.</p>
