Even though most of us are aware of the repercussions of eating too much sugar such as obesity and diabetes among others, we do not stop, this is because we are addicted and even tend to have sugar cravings.
When you stop eating sugar, you embark on a journey to improving both short term and long term health benefits of your body.
Once you quit taking sugar, this is what will happen to your body;
1. You will lose some weight
Sugar is itself high in calories and can also be so addictive. Therefore, the moment you reduce its intake, you will greatly reduce your cravings leading to less intake of calories and thus reducing weight.
Keeping off sugar from your diet will act send signals to the mind on when you have had enough and this will help you in cutting off unwanted fat.
2. Boosts your memory
Excess sugar consumption creates brain fog that damages your brain cells and affects your ability to remember things. Reducing its intake helps in growth of more cells that help in memory improvement.
3. You will look younger
Sugar leads to the deformation of the collagen and elastin found in our skins making them elastic and supple. Also, reducing sugar intake regulates the blood sugar levels and this minimizes the inflammation and also pigmentation linked to aging.
4. Reduces risks of contacting diabetes
Excessive sugar intake forces the pancreas to release more insulin hormone which might lead to the malfunction of the insulin producing cells hence triggering diabetes later in life.
