Per the study......
3. Results
3.1. Male rats with daily 12-h HFCS access gain more weight in 8 weeks
than animals with equal access to sucrose
Animals with 12-h 8% HFCS access gained significantlymore weight
in 8 weeks than animals with 12-h 10% sucrose access
- thomaspaine 17y agoKeep reading. "Further, no difference was found in HFCS intake and total overall caloric intake in the groups given 12-h access versus 24-h access. Both groups consumed the same amount of HFCS on average (21.3 ± 2.0 kcal HFCS in 12-h versus 20.1 ± 1.6 kcal HFCS in 24 h), even though only the 12-h group showed a significant difference in body weight when compared with the control groups." As per the author's criticism, these results are seemingly inconsistent. Why would rats with 12-h access to HFCS gain more weight while rats with 24-h access did not, when their HFCS intake was the same on average?
- donaldc 17y agoPerhaps the liver or some part of the digestive system can only handle a certain amount of HFCS per hour.

- turnersauce 17y agoThe say on page 2: "...our previous publications show limited (12 h) access to sucrose precipitates binge-eating behavior (Avena et al., 2006)."
