Soda warning? New study supports link between diabetes, high-fructose corn syrup

Researchers have found new evidence that soft drinks sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup may contribute to the development of diabetes, particularly in children. Drinks containing the syrup had high levels of reactive compounds that have been shown by others to have the potential to trigger cell and tissue damage that could cause the diabetes, a growing epidemic. The study will be presented in August at the American Chemical Society national meeting in Boston.
