Sugar - the Sweet Killer

While many of us have an inordinate craving for sweets, being informed about the harm that excessive intake of sugar can do to our health can help us refrain from this indulgence.

Here are a few ways that excessive sugar intake wreaks havoc on our body:

• Consuming excess sugar can lead to a condition called metabolic syndrome.
• It is characterized by high blood pressure, high blood sugar, unhealthy cholesterol levels, and abdominal fat.

• It also contributes to widespread inflammation and a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.
• Studies have found that high sugar intake has a negative effect on cognition, and it has also been implicated in hyperactivity and inattention in children and adolescents.
