Can you identify a chemical pathway for digestion for the components of HFCS?  
How does the structure (alpha/beta/D/L) impact these processes?
Has the occurrence of HFCS changed since this article has been published?
How does the incidence of HFCS relate to the cost of food?
Does access to food without HFCS play out equitably?  If not, what discrepancies exist?
Has there been any additional conclusions about the impact on health due to the presence of HFCS in food?]]> 2021-02-03 20:33:28 UTC https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1160949875 Assignment Expectations (we amended this list in the ppt on 2.26.21) Do highlighted portions and submit to assignment folder due 3.9.21 (15 pts) blaseckiwebb https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1160999036 1. Identify your research question of focus.
2. Identify which other students in class have a similar question.  Differentiate the "focus" of your questions so as to be answering your own unique question.
3. Proceed with research.  Find at least 2 quality resources.  Be sure to properly cite these sources.
4. Summarize your findings in a few solid paragraphs.  This may include images.
5. Share your findings with a group of similar research questions.  Refine your findings based on what your group shared.
6. Share your findings within the entire class. 
7. Identify a refined question in which you could continue your research.
8. Reflection: Discuss the research process that you went through.  What troubles did you have?  What surprised you?  How will you approach our next research project in this class?]]> 2021-02-03 20:47:31 UTC https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1160999036 Research Question (Audrey DeGuia) https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1190054229 Does HFCS impact different age groups differently?

How much energy does each reaction consume and do the nutrients go to different places in the body?]]> 2021-02-11 15:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1192759240 Katie Lane's Research Question https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1193367062 How does the human body digest HFCS-55, HFCS-42, and sucrose differently? How does the digestion process affect human health? Is one healthier than the rest?]]> 2021-02-11 17:02:53 UTC https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1193367062 Research Question (Ryan Bensman) https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1196252463 How does HFCS react with the enzymes in our liver and small intestine? How does this work on a molecular level? Where do fructose molecule go when the body cannot process them? ]]> 2021-02-12 13:04:33 UTC https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1196252463 Research question (Matteo) https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1196910875 In a city with large swaths of food desert like Detroit, how much more common are foods with HFCS than foods without HFCS? What effects (beside weight gain) will the many Detroiters and other high consumers of HFCS see throughout years or decades of HFCS intake?]]> 2021-02-12 15:35:27 UTC https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1196910875 Research Question (Sydney Levy) https://padlet.com/blaseckiwebb/3oh368dctau71e6m/wish/1197013892 Why is HFCS an ingredient in so many foods (in the us) even after it has been proven to be incredibly unhealthy? Is it easier to produce than other sweeteners like sucralose? What makes HFCS so much unhealthier than its competitors?
