Life can often be unfair, and one such instance is the fact that we all just love sugar, while it is detrimental to our health.
The taste of sweet is simply irresistible, but as soon as you learn the effects of sugar, you should definitely try to stay away from it as often as possible.
The following signs indicate that you consume too much sugar, and it is high time to do something about
- Cravings for Sugar/Carbs
You are probably a sugar addict if you often crave for something sweet. Sugar causes addictions, and its consumption leads to a chain reaction of sugar cravings.
- Lack of energy and tiredness
If you are constantly feeling tired and you lack energy, you are probably consuming too much sugar. Foods high in sugar temporarily boost the energy, and afterwards, you are experiencing a crash, and you remain tired throughout the day.
- Weight Gain
Sugar is free of fiber and protein, so it does not lead to a feeling of satiety, and the more sugar we consume, the more calories we get. Sugar triggers the release of insulin which carries the sugar to the body organs in order to be used for energy.
Hence, the excessive intake of sugar sends a message to the body to produce more insulin, which causes insulin resistance over time. In that case, the body is not able to react to the normal amounts of insulin, and cannot use sugar as needed.
Insulin resistance is linked to weight gain and obesity, as well as diabetes, as the pancreas becomes overwhelmed.
- Frequent Colds and Flu
The high intake of sugar also weakens the immune system, and its ability to prevent colds, viruses, flu, and chronic diseases. If you manage to reduce the consumption of sugar, you will lower the risk of these health issues.
