High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is a popular additive among food makers because it is cheaper and sweeter than cane sugar. Produced from corn, HFCS maintains quality and enhances the flavor in many foods and beverages.

Experts believe HFCS and sugars are key factors in the rise of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes.

If you want to avoid HFCS, incorporate fresh foods into your everyday diet and read all food labels carefully.
