    AbstractFructose is a monosaccharide and reducing sugar. It is present in sucrose and honey. Researchers around the world have come together in a just-published study that offers new ideas about how fructose consumption results in obesity and metabolic syndrome, which can lead to diabetes.

We also discuss the effects of consumption of high fructose corn syrup, dietary fructose, fructose-induced changes in metabolism.:© 2013 Asian Oceanian Association for the Study of Obesity .
