Actually it is. While too much sugar in your blood is bad from an
insulin level and resistance point of view, the glucose part of sucrose
can be metabolized by any cell in your body. fructose OTOH can only be
metabolized by liver cells, and in the process causes damage to your
liver - as much as alcohol, and in the same ways, without any of the
enjoyment.

That new agave syrup stuff is an abomination, it's a super high fructose
syrup.
