Diets high in sugar are wreaking havoc on our bodies. Consuming large amounts of sugar on a daily basis raises the risks of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease and high cholesterol.
However, once you start an addiction, is it really only your choice anymore?
In some ways, it is not.
Sugar has been found to exhibit the same qualities as other addictive substances.
When you eat sugar, your serotonin levels raise, giving you moments of euphoria.
When you come down from the sugar high, then you want more.
The catch is, the more sugar you eat, the more you want, because your tolerance for sugar rises with continued use.
