Reading articles like this makes me feel really good about making such an effort to eliminate fructose from my daily diet and also is a good motivation to stick to it in the future. So, I decided to use my research on fructose for something good and make &#8220;Why it&#8217;s good that fructose is bad for us&#8221; a regular series on Fructopia.<\/p>\n<p>Today is Sunday and Sunday is movie day. Instead of choosing the latest Hollywood blockbuster, I recommend you watch this lecture called &#8220;Sugar: The Bitter Truth&#8221; by Dr. Lustig. I watched it the first time about two years ago, but I need to watch it again, because this lecture explains it all! It gets into detail describing what fructose actually is and what it does to your body, explaining why it is bad for us. Not being a native English speaker I didn&#8217;t understand every single word of the lecture, because it gets really scientific at some points. But don&#8217;t worry, you will get Dr. Lustig&#8217;s overall point.<\/p>\n<p>The full lecture is about 90 minutes long, which sounds a bit tedious. But if you don&#8217;t make it through the whole video, stop at an interesting part and I\u2019m sure you will continue to watch it tomorrow. Already three million other viewers made it through to the end \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dBnniua6-oM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>P.S. Do you remember, when I said that I got the impression that mass media was finally gaining interest in fructose? Today a friend drew my attention to another good example. One of the major news sites in Germany Spiegel Online wrote an article about fructose malabsorption and they also referred to the study mentioned by The Atlantic. I hope this type of article will increase in number in the future. Here is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spiegel.de\/gesundheit\/diagnose\/fruktoseunvertraeglichkeit-was-kann-man-noch-essen-a-882036.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In meinem vorletzten Post, hab ich euch auf einen Artikel auf The Atlantic hingewiesen, der \u00fcber die Risiken von Fruktose berichtet. Genau solche Artikel sind es, die mich, neben den bekannten und unerw\u00fcnschten Symptomen, motivieren auch weiterhin akribisch auf Fruktose zu verzichten. Deshalb soll &#8220;Warum es gut ist, dass Fruktose schlecht ist f\u00fcr uns&#8221; eine regelm\u00e4\u00dfige Serie auf Fructopia werden.<\/p>\n<p>Da heute Sonntag ist, und zu einem gem\u00fctlichen Sonntag f\u00fcr gew\u00f6hnlich ein guter Film geh\u00f6rt, hab ich heute eine kleine Filmempfehlung f\u00fcr euch. Nichts HollywoodBollywood m\u00e4\u00dfiges allerdings, sorry \ud83d\ude09 Der Beitrag ist eine Vorlesung von Dr. Lustig, ja, der gute Mann hei\u00dft wirklich so, die sich &#8220;Sugar: The Bitter Truth&#8221; nennt. Wenn ihr also alle, wirklich alles, \u00fcber Fructose wissen wollt, schaut dieses Video. An manchen stellen wird der Gute etwas sehr wissenschaftlich, sodass man als nicht &#8220;native speaker&#8221; nicht immer jedes Wort versteht, aber die Botschaft kommt dennoch mehr als deutlich r\u00fcber. Und bitte lasst euch nicht davon abschrecken, dass das Video 90 Minuten lang ist. Wenn drei Millionen andere Leute es geschafft haben, schafft ihr das auch! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dBnniua6-oM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>p.s. Erinnert ihr euch daran, ich meinte, dass ich das Gef\u00fchl habe, dass das Thema Fruktoseintoleranz endlich auch in den Massenmedien Einzug h\u00e4lt? Heute hat mich ein guter Freund auf einen Artikel auf SpiegelOnline hingewiesen. Jetzt ratet Mal worum es ging? Genau, Fruktoseintoleranz. Ich bin noch etwas Zwiegestalten, was ich von dem Artikel halten soll. Einerseits, finde ich allein die Tatsache, dass der Spiegel dar\u00fcber berichtet gut, andererseits, wird das Thema mal wieder nur oberfl\u00e4chlich angekratzt.
