(2/21, McMillen) reports that according to a review
published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, "excessive calories --
and not any unique properties of fructose -- are more likely to lead to
extra pounds." Researchers, however, pointed out "that many of the
studies they reviewed had serious shortcomings. Therefore, their
conclusions are, in a word, inconclusive."

(2/21, Fiore) reports, "In a review and meta-analysis, fructose had no
effects on body weight in trials looking at normal energy intake,"
according to the researchers. "And while it was associated with weight
gain when given in high doses, it's impossible to determine whether the
excess pounds were due specifically to fructose or to a higher overall
caloric intake." However, the study authors cautioned that "the
'evidence is too preliminary to guide food choices.'" Also covering the
story are HealthDay (2/21, Mann) and Reuters (2/21, Pittman).
