The chemistry here is daunting.

There is a short explanation of the citric acid cycle in the video
The Bitter Truth, about fructose. Dr. Lustig addresses this in conjunction with alcohol metabolism about 1/2 thru the long YouTube.

This is the Kegg pathway for the citric acid cycle:

Each box is an enzyme. So you can see how complex it can get.

I don't really know how they will apply this to humans. But it is a good first step, I guess.
