It spikes up your insulin and can harm your teeth (if not brushed thoroughly). It does give energy but if the energy is not used, it will turn to fat. It may deplete your body of vitamins and minerals as it is a refined sugar.

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HCFS) is a cheap sweetener that is added to many of the foods on the market today. It is genetically modified. Though some physicians feel it is better for diabetics than other sugar choices, it is processed in the liver. Studies on rats fed a diet that was high in high fructose corn syrup showed liver damage.
Some scientists feel it is a cause of obesity and other health issues.
