Specific Aims: There is considerable epidemiological evidence that demonstrates associations between added sugar/sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and increased risk for or prevalence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic syndrome, and gout.

Adolescents are the highest consumers of sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) potentially because their developing brains are most susceptible to the rewarding neural effects of sugar consumption. Thus, we specifically target this population (adolescents) to understand neural mechanisms involved in

Non- alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) occurs in 30% of the adult US population (Luther, J., et al., 2015). Eating large amounts of fructose (a dietary sugar) increases liver fat accumulation and worsens NAFLD. In addition, fructose consumption has been shown to greatly increase

Abdominal bloating, gas, belching, distension, and diarrhea are common gastrointestinal symptoms that are reported by at least 1/3rd of patients presenting to gastroenterology clinics. When routine endoscopic and radiological tests are negative1, most of these patients are labeled as irritable bowel

Diet-related diseases, such as diabetes and obesity, have become pervasive global health challenges, so much so that they are being called epidemics. The problem is particularly acute in the United States where two-thirds of adults and one-third of children are overweight or obese. A key contributor

Need for proposed research: High quality systematic reviews and meta-analyses of controlled trials represent the highest level of evidence to support dietary guidelines and public health policy development. As HFCS has gained increasing popularity as a popular sweetener over the past ~50 years,

Background: Sugars have emerged as one of the most important public health concerns. Attention has focused particularly on fructose-containing sugars (fructose, sucrose, high fructose corn syrup, honey, etc), which collectively have been indicted as drivers of various cardiometabolic complications.

Study design and Participants The investigators randomly assigned participants to consume one of two novel flavored, high-sugar beverages daily for a 3-week period. The study included fMRI and behavioral assessments pre-/post-intervention and 9 study visits during the intervention period. 20,

Background: Sugars have emerged as one of the most important public health concerns. Attention has focused squarely on fructose-containing sugars (fructose, sucrose, high fructose corn syrup [HFCS], etc.). Collectively, these sugars have been indicted as drivers of the obesity epidemic and its and

Recent studies have demonstrated that consuming high fructose corn syrup (HFCS)- or sucrose-sweetened beverages increased lipid/lipoprotein risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in healthy adults compared with iso-caloric amounts of glucose or low-fat milk. The longest of these studies,

Detailed description (Why and How?) Fructose is known to be metabolized differently than the other common monosaccharides. In addition to the well know lipogenic effects, more recent evidence has shown that the acute changes in hormones and metabolic parameters that control appetite and energy
