fructose and metabolic syndrome
Fructose is a type of sugar found in fruits, honey, and many processed foods. Metabolic syndrome refers to a group of conditions that increase the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. Consuming excessive amounts of fructose is associated with metabolic syndrome, as it can lead to obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar levels, abnormal cholesterol levels, and insulin resistance.
