We have to admit, we find it difficult to finish our meal without a little sweet touch. And then you can't say no to chocolate. When we are at the restaurant, we first look at the dessert menu before choosing our dish, just to be sure we are hungry enough to eat it… Us, addicted to sugar?! But no, not at all… yes? Mmmm… Maybe. Here are 5 signs that indicate that we are eating too much.
In the moment, sugar can give us a boost, but this is followed by a "slump" which is characterized by physical and mental fatigue. The ideal way to be in good shape all day is to eat balanced meals that provide protein and fiber.
Sugar raises insulin levels and stimulates sebum production. If we consume too much of it, we therefore have oilier skin and we also risk having more imperfections or pimples. It is even worse in people with acne. Too much sugar can also impact collagen fibers and promote wrinkles and loss of skin elasticity.
Spikes in blood sugar not only have an impact on our fatigue:they also affect our morale and can make us downright irritable... In the most extreme cases, too much sugar can also promote depression.
The body does not know how to handle too much sugar. His reaction ? It then turns it into fat (as with alcohol). Gloops…
Thinking about dessert before you start eating, having compulsive cravings for chocolate or candy... These are unmistakable signs! The good news is that sugar addiction is ultimately a fairly virtuous circle since, if we resist our urges (it's hard at first, you have to know!), we end up naturally having less sugar craving.
