Basic biochemistry. Fructose enters the metabolic pathway after PFK-1 an enzyme that converts phospho glucose to Fructose. This is the slowest enzymatic reaction and thus the rate determining step in metabolizing sugar.
TL;DR. Fructose is metabolized faster leading to more consumption.
All I know is theres big starch carbohydrates and small sugar ones and that the big ones "burn" slower. I didnt know the speed ranking of the sugars but surely moderate big starches for long energy and moderate sugar for short energy is best. Fruity sugar or refined, a 3000 calorie/day diet will pork anyone but the fittest, biggest people.

And imo "basic biochemistry" is an oxymoron haha
