 Yeah, fructose is one of the strongest toxins that's ever been discovered. It is so toxic that it doesn't actually get mostly absorbed into our bloodstream, but it's taken directly to our liver where it's detoxified into triglycerides and uric acid. The sad thing is triglycerides are carried through our body by cholesterol. So the more fructose you eat, the higher your cholesterol goes, and that was the point of Dr. Gundry's diet evolution, my first book. The other part of fructose, about 30% of it, goes directly to our kidneys where it's a direct kidney toxin. And you wouldn't believe how many people with kidney disease is because of all the fruit that they eat. Lastly, as you know, fructose has converted to uric acid. If you've never heard of uric acid, that's what causes gout. And fructose, fruit is one of the leading causes of gout that never gets mentioned by doctors. So if you've got gout, get fructose fruit out of your life. Thanks for watching. Click the circular channel icon to subscribe and make sure you don't miss a single video.
