Sugar is everywhere in the modern diet, not just in desserts, but in everyday foods that you might not even think about.
Too much can negatively affect our health, causing fatigue, weight gain or even long-term health problems.
Sugar is important for the proper functioning of the body – some of it is used as a source of energy. However, too much sugar in the body is not burned, but is converted into fat. This can lead to fat accumulation in areas such as the hips, abdomen, face and arms.
We get a lot of sugar from processed foods that often contain high fructose or high fructose corn syrup. The latter, although cheaper than regular sugar, is even 20% sweeter and can have even more negative effects on health.
According to University of California professor Dr. According to Robert Lustig, the human body can safely metabolize only 6 teaspoons of sugar per day.
Here are some of the effects of consuming too much sugar:
- causes weight gain
- causes metabolic dysfunction leading to increased blood sugar, obesity, lower HDL and elevated LDL cholesterol, and increased blood pressure
- increases uric acid levels and thus increases the risk of heart and kidney disease
- overloads and damages the liver
- causes insulin resistance
