    Fructose helps to stimulate appetite. Fructose can directly stimulate appetite and make people want to eat more. The University of Southern California conducted an experiment and found that eating fructose resulted in more activity in the reward area of the subject’s brain, a stronger hunger rating, and more food cravings than eating glucose. Because fructose cannot stimulate insulin, the latter is very important for forming our satiety.
