Dear Osmosa, I'm Dian from Indonesia. I teach Biochemistry for Nursing in one university in Indonesia. I used to use your video in my class. It helps very much. But our problem is...that my students hardly understand the videos due to the language gap (we don't know English well). If i dub the explanations of this video into bahasa Indonesia using my voice, will you allow it? Thank you very much :-)

Good morning! Thank you for your clear video. I have a question, can you please help me out? May we say that fructose is more often stored rather than immediately used by the body because of its difficult/complex metabolizing process? Could this explains why fructose as added sugar overloads the liver and generates fat? Thanks a lot!

actually, the "beta" type of glycosidic bonding means that the first monosaccaride in a beta type: this means that the OH group on the carbon that is going to participate to the bonding is up, and not down as in the case of the alfa

[@Myrkonius]

I like how he avoided to say that fructose will actually become fat through De Novo Lipogenesis

[@ApexRevolution]

Look up human do novo lipogenesis and you will see it is one of the bodies least used pathways. There's a paper on it literally called "do novo lipogenesis a least used pathway or something similar to that. Carbs do not easily turn into fat, not in humans at least.

[@freemocean489]

Carbs are mostly turned into fat

5:50 Lactose Structure, its Beta 1-4 linkage of Beta Galactose and Beta Glucose. But you’ve shown Alpha Glucose, please correct.

[@lynnlobliner3933]

It would have been interesting to see how High Fructose Corn Syrup figures into this. I've heard that the body does NOT recognize it correctly and that the pancreas does not know to make insulin to break it down.

[@ordinalkirk]

Everything I have read on the subject can be summed up as “a carb is a carb.” It does seem that people that eat a lot of fruit have very high triglycerides so maybe there is something to fructose versus other sugars.

[@chantalcarnes9241]

Hello, it's a nice a nice video, but I'm just wondering why it's so completely different than the carbs & sugars high yield notes. Is it b/c this is biochemistry? Is there a separate carbs & sugars under GI?

If Honey has the percentage 50% Fructose and 44% Glucose what is the reason that the sugars don't form a glycosidic bond to form combine to form Sucrose, Table sugar. I've heard that alpha bonds break down easily but beta bonds do not break down in the body. Seems energy is still required to break the alpha bond of sucrose. Is honey healthier than table sugar if the glycosidic bond is not there ? It seems like it's easier to process and absorb? What's the reason fruits are healthier?

[@freemocean489]

Fruits are not healthy at all, fructose is stored in the liver to get out of the blood because it bonds with proteins.
