It is very well given the topic, not only because it is shown in a way it can be interesting for the spectator but also beacuse of all the data it gives about sugar in only half an hour. It starts  explaining sugar history, then it shows which ilnesses can be developed by this ´´nutrient´´,  it also compares sugar to other sweeteners, and many more topics!

In conclusion, for all those who want to have a healthier life, I highly recomend watching this episode.]]> 2022-11-06 13:08:04 UTC https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2371654290 2022gorchsian https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2371683890 Today I am going to talk about something that for many people is not a big deal and does not seem to be dangerous. I am talking about sugar, and the addiction it can develope.

There are many studies that indicate that an excessive amount of sugar consumption is directly related with obesity, diabetes type 2, alzheimer, heart disease and death by all causes. Its consumption seems to give a reward as satisfactory as cocain and other drugs. Sugar in ancient times was only found in fruits and veggies, but now is found in many more scenarios. 

When we talk about sugar, we also reffer to artificial sweeteners. Notwithstanding the fact that they have 0 calories, they are more addictive than sugar and worse for your metabolism. Which is more important than calories when it comes to gaining or losing weight.

In conclusion, I believe that as far as we can be from high-processed foods the better. As I shown, sugar is directly corelated to many diseases and to addiction]]> 2022-11-06 13:50:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2371683890 2022gorchsian https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2391163177 2022-11-20 00:29:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2391163177 2022gorchsian https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2391163740 2022-11-20 00:31:18 UTC https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2391163740 2022gorchsian https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2394079838 Actually, it is not an article, it is a study from the NIH (National Institute of Health). When it comes to science topics, I search in this web site because I find it the most serious one.

The analogy it makes between the reward recieved from cocaine and sugar it is brilliant and I find it to be possible in humans also. Altough I believe this study shows how humans behaviour towards sugar may be, we can not forget the fact that it was made with rats.]]> 2022-11-22 12:37:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sugaraddictioniangorchs/ksjc3nnvi1eqimkh/wish/2394079838
