So what's the difference between fructose from fruit or honey and
fructose from high-fructose corn syrup?  I don't doubt that any sugar
can be bad in excess.  How much is "excess"?  In fact, I consider
carbohydrates in general to be a dietary problem, mainly because it's
so easy to get too much of them in our diets.

Fat, on the other hand, has an unwarranted bad name.  It can be a bad
actor, but isn't inherently so.  It's quantity and type that matters,
and I'm even starting to doubt that type matters much.  This is just
my opinion, of course.

Salt can no more be over-processed and lose its nutritional value than
can water.  "Salt" is sodium chloride.  Some iodide is added to
prevent goiter.  Otherwise, nothing about it matters, unless it's
contaminated.
