If not, then why do nutritionists, athletes, diabetics, and bodybuilders favor sugar instead of HFCS?


Vlad, that's an un-sourced argument from authority. (And particularly unconvincing authorities, in the case of athletes and body-builders, who have been known to jump on a lot of wild and often harmful nutritional fads.)


That was the point--your arguments are unsourced. :)


You can't source an absence of evidence.


Please source your argument, that I am not allowed to appeal to authority or make bold claims without evidence, but you are. :)


Because its a marker for a junk food, but not literally the problem.
