That is not true. Natural sugar (e.g. sugar cane) is 50% fructose. HFCS is by definition a compound sugar with more than 50% of fructose. How much higher, depends on the manufacturer.
- JamesBarney 6y agoHCFS-42 is high fructose corn syrup with 42% fructose. So you don't need greater than 50% fructose. And the most common high fructose corn syrup is hcfs 55% which is very close to sugar. The scientific consensus is pretty much there won't be any significant changes to your health if you replace sugar with HCFS or vice versa.
