Some professionals say that. Some professionals say that there is no
significant difference. To my knowledge, there are no controlled
studies done on humans to test any difference. There was a reputable
study done on humans about a year ago. There were some articles in the
popular press citing that study. One of the authors of the study wrote
an angry critique, saying that first of all, that wasn't the purpose of
the study, and second, they hadn't tested HFCS!
