My understanding is that fructose is roughly as bad as glucose or
sucrose.  So natural juice is just as bad as pop if it is just as
sweet and you drink as much.

Note: I am not a medical doctor.

Diabetes is a growing problem.  There is currently a lot of
research to find out why.

A year ago I went to the Gairdner/Nobel and Gairdner Laureate Forums.
The session on the Metabolic Syndrome seemed to be quite interesting
and relevant but rather hard for me to follow.  Something very strange
going on with insulin receptors involving a complicated indirect
pathway.

Gairdner awards are considered predictive for Nobel Prizes.  These are
not run-of-the-mill researchers.

Perhaps this would be a place to start (but I haven't read it so this
isn't a strong recommendation):
