@Cari I thought so as well! And the amount is not very high 40 nmol/L where it began to make a difference. May all pregnant women see this!!
“Besides being one of the forms of sugar involved in ordinary energy production, interchangeable with glucose, fructose has some special functions, that aren’t as well performed by glucose. It is the main sugar involved in reproduction, in the seminal fluid and intrauterine fluid, and in the developing fetus. After these crucial stages of life are past, glucose becomes the primary molecular source of energy, except when the system is under stress. It has been suggested (Jauniaux, et al., 2005) that the predominance of fructose rather than glucose in the embryo’s environment helps to maintain ATP and the oxidative state (cellular redox potential) during development in the low-oxygen environment. The placenta turns glucose from the mother’s blood into fructose, and the fructose in the mother’s blood can pass through into the fetus, and although glucose can move back from the fetus into the mother’s blood, fructose is unable to move in that direction, so a high concentration is maintained in the fluids around the fetus.” -Ray Peat
@Lilac I am a little concerned about RFK. He has been voted in and against vaccines and now he is seemingly sounding the opposite…

I heard something similar about RFK–concern he’s a washout or a traitor–but this commentator said something like “that’s not what he really said.” Did RFK recommend the MMR for all babies/children, or did he parse it more like “parents have to decide”?
Ok, I read RFK’s statement at the link. That Fox hedline is not what he wrote.
The “accurate information” part below sounds like throwing shade to me. Even if you don’t feel that, he does not promote MMR for all.
“As healthcare providers, community leaders, and policymakers, we have a shared responsibility to protect public health. This includes ensuring that accurate information about vaccine safety and efficacy is disseminated. We must engage with communities to understand their concerns, provide culturally competent education, and make vaccines readily accessible for all those who want them.”
