Today, we’re going to discuss the effects of sugar on your health. Sugar is considered toxic in the body, so it is removed from the blood when you consume it. Similar to body temperature, blood sugar is kept constant at around 80. When you consume sugar, the hormone insulin removes sugar from the blood and puts it into the cells.

If you continue eating large amounts of sugar, the body begins to protect itself by blocking the receptors for insulin in your cells. This ultimately decreases the amount of sugar inside your cells.

Over time, this compensation mechanism will break down, and you will no longer produce enough insulin to keep your blood sugar levels down, eventually leading to diabetes.

There are two types of sugar: processed sugars and whole sugars. Heavily processed sugars, such as glucose, dextrose, corn syrup, glucose syrup, high fructose corn syrup, agave syrup, white sugar, brown sugar, and rice syrup, are devoid of important nutrients like B vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, and phytonutrients.

Your body requires nutrients to turn sugar into energy. When you consume processed sugars without the nutrients, your body pulls from your nutrient reserves to use the sugar as fuel.

Raw honey has 181 different chemicals that offer protection and allow you to metabolize the sugar. Maple syrup, turbinado sugar, molasses, coconut sugar, palm sugar, and date sugar are also less processed forms of sugar.

If you’re having trouble quitting sugar, consume fruits or whole sugars instead of processed sugars as you focus on lowering your intake.
