High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is produced by processing corn starch, which is derived from corn kernels. The starch is first liquefied with heat and enzymes, converting it into a syrup. Then, specific enzymes, such as glucose isomerase, are added to convert a portion of the glucose in the syrup into fructose. The resulting mixture, which contains varying levels of fructose, is then concentrated and purified to create HFCS, commonly used as a sweetener in various food and beverage products.
