The last few years various studies have shown that eating too much sugar, especially sugar is often added in cooking and processed foods, can improve blood fat levels. A study at the University of Minnesota showed that consumption of large amounts of glucose can affect the levels of triglycerides in the blood.
Researchers assume that the human body can not metabolize the sweet snack as soon as that person can eat. So the liver (liver) put some glucose from the snack into your blood stream, or save it for later use.
David Levitsky, Ph.D., professor of psychology and nutrition to add, if the tank is in the heart is full, the excess into triglycerides. Glucose consumption of snacks that you go into your heart as well, but instead deposited into the bloodstream, it is stored as glycogen. The liver can store about 90 to 100 grams of glycogen. If not used, the rest will be stored glycogen in the form of fat (triglycerides).
By maintaining a healthy weight, most people can keep their triglyceride levels at an acceptable level. "If you are overweight or gain weight, the fat will accumulate and be a marker of heart disease and stroke," says Levitsky.
If you're one of those overweight, your first step is to immediately reduce sugary and starchy foods, beer, and sugary drinks. Your body is not designed to handle that much sugar.
TOO MUCH SUGAR PRESSING SYSTEM YOUR BODY
The doctor will use an oral glucose tolerance test or an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to diagnose prediabetes and diabetes. To undergo OGTT, you need to consume 75 grams of glucose to see how your body processes sugar system.
Severe hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) can cause blurred vision, excessive thirst and frequent urination. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) is easy to recognize, that you feel weak, cold sweating, and anxiety, blurred vision, or fatigue a few hours after intake of sugar that much. OGTT would be more accurate than normal fasting blood glucose tests to measure blood sugar levels.
LIVING LONGER TO PREVENT THE INCREASE BLOOD SUGAR
If you are accustomed to eating large amounts of food, excessive alcohol, and lack of activity, then you probably will shorten the life of you, even if your weight is ideal though. Repeated blood sugar spikes give stress on the organs that make up your body's metabolic machinery.
And you probably will not feel it. "People can live without symptoms for many years in a state of prediabetes even though they have lost as much as 50 percent of their pancreatic function" Levitsky said. "And they do not even know about it." He continued.
People with prediabetes have the same health risks with diabetes, especially for heart disease.
So start thinking about what you eat today. Sugar makes you addicted, and have good taste makes you continue to want to eat it without feeling full. Limit all high glycemic indexed foods such as soft drinks, sugary snacks, cakes, biscuits, bread, pancakes, and so on.
"The less stress you give your body system, the longer your body will function properly" says Levitsky. And stop blaming sugar for all the health problems that you are feeling right now, because basically all there is in yourself.
