Dr Dougherty shares her view, as a physician. ((When you hear her words, you know she has patients with this set of complaints, and that she knows if what she says works or not. This is vastly different from all the people, all the hundreds of videos, that know nothing, tested nothing, understand nothing, just repeat something politically correct, like crying wolf about the corn industry, etc. Don't misunderstand me, I am not saying you should eat high fructose corn syrup... but that is not THE culprit, there is a cultural/societal/money component that is underneath it, and I think killed both my parents:
That it is animal fat that makes you fat. That it is animal fat that causes heart disease. That it is better to eat fat-free, cook with vegetable oil, and all the other happy horseshit that fed us, my hunch, since the second world war.
As a child fed formula, it was sweetened with sugar, was loaded with other carbs, I was born in 1947, in Hungary: no corn syrup there.
All sugars have fructose in them. All fruits have fructose in them. And it is not human's natural eating to eat sweet stuff. I'll write an article about this taste thing that has been tempered with so we eat what is bad for us.))
As a healer, patient, and independent thinker, I will go way beyond what she is saying. Maybe doctors can't do it, but as a layperson with deep insights into the way things work, I can detect connections others can't or haven't.
One of these is how the fructose intolerance condition develops.
I have a whole theory on that, quite counter with everything I see on youtube or on websites.
Stay tuned, I can't write 24/7... I'll get to it.

wow, I allways thought sugar was the culprit with my digestive system, fructose sweetners and the like. Iam so confused brcause sometimes Ican eat certaine foods and Iam fine and sometimes Icant. Idont eat dairy anymore or very little, Ihave been using honey instead of sugar for a while now and nothing have really changed. In all probability the honey is causing my problem or making it worse,
Barbara, my experience has been that all sweets cause problems, so I have stopped all sweets, including sweet vegetables and fruits. I haven’t had any problems since then.
