Personally I agree with you.
Gary Taubes wrote in GCBC about this. It would seem that Taubes hypothesis still fits the facts even if its just fructose that is harmful.
But, like you said, carbs in nature comes with fructose. Even sucrose (table sugar) has fructose.
So like Taubes keeps on saying. Could we please test all this with properly controlled experiments.
