"You don't have to eat 2500 calories a day, you can use it as a benchmark though. If you constantly feel boated and groggy with stomach aches, cut it back a bit. But you cannot restrict your calories, you will not succeed long term. If you feel…"

"sorry ok I'll try to simplify and explain it all now in 1 go:

In studies, our livers can only metabolize about 50 grams of fructose from pure 100% refined fructose. Above that threshold, the liver is stressed. One would think, then, that eating…"

"It means that me are able to metabolize the fructose properly and utilize it, as opposed it it overwhelming our liver and causing damage and disease like fructose-haters say it does. For instance, if you were to eat 150 grams of refined fructose by…"

"Sure thing.
Here's Dr. Greger talking about the threshold: "The threshold for toxicity of fructose may be around 50 grams." http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-much-fruit-is-too-much/ Some real life evidence rather than theory: "Seventeen people…"

"People say fruit and fructose is bad because fructose is metabolized only by the liver, rather than insulin from the pancreas metabolizing glucose. We have a threshold of 30-50 grams of fructose (pure refined fructose) and that's  all we can…"
