Corn Syrup Solids are another form of refined sugar – it’s sugar made from corn.

Gluten is a part of wheat that many people are allergic to – that’s a simple explanation.

So when you see foods that are labeled as “gluten free” it doesn’t mean that it’s sugar free. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Yeah, that can be really confusing. What you want to always look at are the ingredients of a product like you did, and not the nutrition panel.

The reason is because there are loopholes as I call them, that the FDA has laid out for manufacturers and labeling. Check out this article of mine on sugar-free labeling….just because the label says sugar-free, doesn’t mean it is.

In the end though, just pay attention to the ingredients and that way you’ll be able to avoid the sugar-filled stuff.

You’re right that if you cut out the refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup being just one of them, that you won’t have any need for “fat burners”. I really don’t get the diet pill or fat burner topic as it is. They’re quite expensive and I’d rather spend my money on whole foods that I can actually chew and eat, since I need to eat (healthy foods) to lose weight anyway. And, those whole foods do not contain any high fructose corn syrup.

That’s a pretty funny line about the mallet, thanks for sharing it!
