    Anyone have information on the health benefits of organic rice syrup?
    I have read a few studies that disparage high fructose corn syrup, so
    have steered clear of that. However, in trying to find an alternative
    for recipes I came across rice syrups. Anyone have any information on
    if these are as risky? Or can the body digest these better?

    We have tried to stay clear of any highly processed or artificial
    ingredients in our products. The organic brown rice syrup seems to
    fit the bill nicely, plus has a nice taste. However, I would love to
    add some links to articles discussing the health benefits.

    Any articles you could point me to would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,

    I'm sure they're just as good or had as HFCS. It's starch turned
    into sugar by the magic of enzymes and other mysterious chemicals
    (AKA: Cheaper Living Through Science).

    Rice syrup sounds highly processed and artificial to me.

    : Sugar is sugar, you twit.

    There are many kinds of sugar, you twit.
    Fructose, Glucose, Dextrose, Sucrose to name a few. Some are sweeter than
    others, some are more readily fermentable and/or digestible.

    Your body doesn't care. Sugar is sugar.

    Unfortunately, I have to agree with JSB the twit, for once. :-P

    They all end up being metabolized in a similar fashion.
    From the research I've done, it appears that Fructose is just as bad, if
    not worse, than Sucrose (table sugar) at contributing to metabolic
    syndrome and insulin resistance.
