When we eat sugary foods once, we want to eat sweets again after a while, and the sugar cycle starts anew.

The more sugar you eat, the more you will crave. When we consume sugar, our brain experiences rapid relaxation and releases dopamine, increasing the feeling of hunger. Consequently, you’ll feel hungry again and again. When we ingest sugar, our stomach converts it into glucose, which enters the body in two ways:

1. Carbohydrates

2. Directly from the sugar we consume, as it is also a carbohydrate.

The rice, bread, and fruits that we consume are converted into glucose in our bodies. You don’t need to consume sugar separately for that.

Excessive sugar intake can lead to increased wrinkles in your skin due to glycation. Glycation is the process where sugar molecules start damaging collagen in your skin cells. Collagen helps to keep your skin tight and firm. Additionally, excessive sugar intake can lead to pimples and acne. If you want to avoid these effects, then stop consuming sugar. After quitting sugar, your skin will start looking wrinkle-free, glowing, and healthy. Moreover, your aging process will also slow down.

“If you have a strong craving for sugar, you can opt for alternatives such as coconut sugar, jaggery, raw honey, or dates. However, keep in mind that each of these options still contains calories, so consume them within limits.”
