Research demonstrates increased consumption of fructose and trans fats significantly increases childhood obesity and also leads to fatty liver disease and cirrhosis. In as little as six weeks, animals fed a diet rich in high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and trans fat (found in margarine, packaged and processed foods) resulted in obesity and fatty liver disease leading to permanent liver damage.
HFCS has been linked to many health conditions including cardiovascular disease and now to obesity and liver disease. HFCS is a cheap sweetener made from corn. Unlike cane sugar, HFCS is very harmful since it is processed differently by the body. It is found in soda, desserts, snacks and more.
Clearly the American diet is killing our children. While liver disease was once thought of as an adult disease, liver health has become a major concern for our youth as well.
