If your choices are fructose or sucrose, I'd stick to sucrose instead of fructose, unless you are diabetic. Here is an article describing the biochemical interactions of fructose in the body and how it stimulates fat synthesis. It's a peer reviewed journal, so probably reliable. If you can wade through all the jargon, it's an interesting read.
