1. Cravings for sugar and carbohydrates
Sugar is addictive, just like cocaine, and its effects are similar. It stimulates the production of dopamine, the pleasure hormone. Often, without even thinking about it, we can be tempted by sweets and simple carbohydrates to get our “fix.” As with other addictions, our bodies develop a tolerance to sugar, meaning that the more we consume, the more we crave, even when we’re not hungry.
2. Lack of energy and fatigue
Orexins, a type of neuropeptide, play a role in the sleep-wake cycle. Sensitive to sugars, they react to glucose levels in the body. A slight increase in blood sugar can inhibit the transmission of neuronal signals by orexins, leading to drowsiness. Thus, after the fleeting energy provided by sugar, a state of fatigue quickly follows, resulting from the inhibition of neurotransmitters.
3. Weight gain
Excessive sugar consumption leads to weight gain. Of course, other factors such as activity level and metabolic rate play a role, but the body first burns sugar for energy. What it cannot use immediately, it stores as fat.
Furthermore, eating too much sugar makes you overeat by suppressing the hormone leptin, which signals to the body when to stop eating. If you feel tired and lethargic after consuming sugar, you are also less inclined to exercise.
