“The combination of carbohydrates (from high-fructose corn syrup) and omega-6 oils (as trans fatty acids) found in the typical fast-food meal is also a real one-two punch to your liver. Within just a few weeks, mice fed a fast-food diet underwent an increase in insulin resistance and an increase in markers of liver damage. You don’t want to even imagine how much damage a diet like this could do to a person’s liver over the course of several years.
Now it turns out that, once you get into the habit of a diet like this, it’s hard to get off. A recent report showed that fat in the diet may be just as addictive as hard drugs. Researchers fed groups of rats either a nutritious diet of only rat chow, a tasty but nutrition-poor diet, or a mix of the two types of food. When the ‘junk-food’ rats had their tasty food taken away, they preferred to starve rather than eat healthy food, refusing to eat the nutritious rat chow for almost two weeks.”
