-Most of us will advise you to limit the fructose all together and absolutely avoid high fructose corn syrup (HFCS).  -Glucose syrup?  if you mean corn syrup than yes that is ok, - As for the above food selections, just read the labels under ingredients ... anything that lists high fructose corn syrup you don't want as a primary source of carbs.  You should still be eating potatoes, rice, and some other clean carbs.

Thanks for the reply , my meals will revolve around whole foods with some dirtier carbs towards the evening which will mainly be oreos and frosted flakes ...... I have posted my meal plan on the nutrition part if that helps to see what I am looking to eat daily Most of the ingredients I have seen is glucose syrup might be because I'm in UK (London)

Oh ok, pardon my ignorance.  I can honestly say that I've NEVER seen 'glucose syrup' over here.  haha, that's kind of scary.

Yea that's what was confusing me lol I was going to just have things like Oreo and maybe the odd cake or dessert so I take it the fresher it is made the less chance of HFCS maybe
