A common feature of our contemporary lifestyle is our reliance on sugar. Sugar has gotten into everything from our typical sweets to processed snacks and sweetened beverages. However, consuming a lot of sugar has negative health impacts, such as an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and other chronic illnesses. Therefore, it becomes essential for our general well-being to be aware of the detrimental effects of sugar and to make deliberate decisions to limit our intake. The amount of sugar we consume is demonstrated by the fact that data on daily sugar intake indicates that up to 65% of American adults routinely consume more sugar than is recommended by the Dietary Guidelines. Our risk of heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, depression, and even some forms of cancer is raised by this consumption, which also leads to obesity.
