The fact is you need carbs and sugars to live, if you cut out all sugar your brain will cease to function as sugars are the only type of energy it can use. this is why diabetics will sometime see a decline in cognitive abilities.
As far as the HFCS item the issue may be in the way your body metabolized Fructose. Most sugars are utilized directly by the muscles when exercising, and what is not used is converted to fat. In the case of fructose it is metabolized by the liver and converted into usable energy, i.e. fat. This is why eating fruit doesn't give you the sugar rush that glucose gives you, Glucose is raw energy and ready to be used by the body, fructose is more of a slow release, as the liver can only work so fast.
I would venture to guess that by the time the liver finishes with the Fructose most of it is going directly to fat as the body is inactive.
