Fructose commonly used as sweetener comes from corn.  As such is very
different than that which comes from fruit.

Corn sweeteners are refined only as much as needed.  To make "pure "
fructose (C-6,H-12,O-6) would be prohibitively expensive.  Corn fructose
will contain other corn starches, proteins and even aflatoxins and pesticide
residues.

On the Paleodiet I am eating a lot of fruit and losing weight steadily, so
maybe eating Paleolithically counteracts any negative effects of fructose.
Or maybe eating whole fruits has a different effect.
