Fructose is a simple sugar and one of the 3 most important blood sugars in your body. It is used by the body for energy. It is possible that Fructose can help your body process glucose. It is the sweetest natural sugar and is used in many food and drink products as a sweetener. Fructose is also present in many fruits, vegetables, cookies, and other sweets. Fructose is recommended for people with Diabetes because it contains a low glycemic index. Most of the carbohydrates we consume are made up of glucose chains and when you consume glucose, the body releases insulin. Fructose, however is digested in the liver and when too much fructose enters the liver, the liver starts making fats out of the fructose instead of processing it.
