Change "High Fructose Corn Syrup" Name To "Corn Sugar", Industry Asks Regulators
If you want a good source for the other side of the HFCS issue here it is:

There are many documented articles which expose the truth behind whatever they wish to call it.
Dr. Marion Nestle, a NYU nutrition professor, says HFCS is no better or worse than any other kind of sugar. This is hard to believe from someone in her position. This can only make me believe she is either not so knowledgeable or that she has some kind of financial interest here.
HFCS is a good source of mercury contamination and increases obesity because it does not stimulate leptin and insulin, which when released tell you that you're full. If they are not released you may continue eating because you don't know you're no longer hungry. Food manufacturers like that.
Read labels! Turn that can or package around and if you see HFCS, High Fructose Corn Syrup, or possibly one day Corn Sugar, just put it down and walk away. Don't be fooled!

High-Fructose Corn Syrup Contains Mercury
The Washington Post reported on 1/28/09 that most High-Fructose Corn Syrup contains mercury. The article stated that caustic soda used to produce HFCS contains mercury and so it is then leached into the HFCS. The article said that on average people consume 12 teaspoons of HFCS per day, with young people who drink soda consuming even more. The article suggested that there are sources of HFCS available that do not contain mercury and that those sources would be good to use. The link appears below.

In today's world it is absolutely crucial to detox. This means eating the right foods, taking detox supplements, and ridding oneself of heavy metals and other poisons via chelation therapy or the newer detox foot baths.
Dr. Felicia Drury Klement, in her book The Acid Alkaline Balance Diet, says "Detoxification is even more important to longevity than good nutrition." She then goes on to describe an experiment in which the heart cells of a chicken were kept alive in a solution for 28 years. Once this solution was allowed to go bad the cells finally died even though nutrients were still added. You could be eating the best diet in the world but if you're not able to properly detoxify you'll find yourself in trouble one day. Some people have a genetic weakness in this area and all of us are exposed to more environmental and food toxins than we can handle.
The Integrative Health Center offers heavy metal testing and nutritional programs to rid the body of these and other poisons.
