So like freshly squeezed orange juice in large quantities?

@msage even that isn't as hard on the liver as processed orange juice that has no fibre in it. But it's the things that have extra fructose added into them that I would be wary of.

An Australian guy did a documentary where he ate the exact same number of calories he'd eaten before, and worked out just as much, but he went for food with added fructose. It's really interesting.

That Sugar Film.
