Long-term consumption of foods high in sugar can significantly shorten a person's lifespan. The World Health Organization (WHO) investigated the causes of death in populations from 23 countries, and the results showed: eating more sugar is more harmful than smoking.
Biscuits contain a large amount of sugar. Nutritionists recommend a daily sugar intake of no more than 100 grams. However, for children and young women who like to eat biscuits, snacks, and drinks, it is common to consume more than 100 grams of sugar per day.
Therefore, the consequence of frequently consuming high-sugar biscuits is: because of excessive energy intake, a feeling of fullness is produced. Meanwhile, the sugar in biscuits requires the consumption of various vitamins and minerals for metabolism in the body. This affects the body's intake of other foods rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, leading to nutritional problems such as vitamin deficiency, calcium deficiency, and potassium deficiency. Over time, this can lead to malnutrition, developmental disorders, obesity, and other diseases.
In addition, Japanese nutritionists believe that excessive consumption of sweets by children is an important reason for the increase in fracture rates. American nutritionists have also pointed out that children who love sweets have higher fracture rates.
Nutritional surveys have also found that eating too many sweets can make the human blood more acidic, which is not conducive to blood circulation, and can weaken the defensive function of the immune system. Long-term and excessive consumption of foods high in sugar can lead to excessive insulin secretion, and disorders in the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, causing endocrine disorders in the body, which in turn can lead to various chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, senile cataracts, dental caries, myopia, rickets, etc.
