Default How does your body know?

For all those of you cutting out sugar from your diets altogether (or even partially) but still eating fruit, I just read that "studies" show your body doesn't know the difference between natural sugars found in fruits, and refined sugars.

What say ye all? I would be interested to hear the answer (I know that Atkins himself, said there was no difference), yet MM and many like-minded diets (like SS and Sugar-busters) seem to say it IS okay to have "natural" sugar in fruit, because that is different, but NOT okay to have refined sugar or sugar in honey or molasses.

(Of course this article didn't have any links to these "studies", so I'm not sure how authentic they are.)
