The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
but when fructose is metabolized the enzyme that metabolizes fructose is called fructokinase and when that metabolizes fructose it consumes atp in an unregulated way so if the cell sees a lot of fructose the atp levels can plummet by 40 or 50 percent in the cell and that signals a huge number of effects throughout the body
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
And that drops the ATP level in the cell because you're consuming ATP to phosphorylate that fructose that's coming in. Now, I mentioned earlier that the thing with the Warburg hypothesis is that In order to get glucose to flux at a high rate into a cell, you have to drop the ATP level. Well, this is a way to drop the ATP level. Instead of consuming it in some other way, you're consuming it by phosphorylating the fructose.
