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, consuming more than 100 grams of sugar a day is a common occurrence.
Therefore, the consequence of frequently consuming high-sugar biscuits is: because the intake of energy is too high, it creates a feeling of fullness. At the same time, 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 the long term, 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 body's blood more acidic, which is not conducive to blood circulation and can weaken the defensive function of the immune system. Long-term and large 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 trigger various chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, senile cataracts, dental caries, myopia, rickets, etc.
