Why does sugar, therefore sweets, have the power to trigger episodes of binge eating?
Sugar found in sweets has all the characteristics of a highly addictive substance of abuse.
Symptoms of excessive sugar consumption are:
- Fatigue
- Temporary weight gain
- Irritability and mood swings
- Headache
So letting go from time to time reminds you how much harm excess sugar can do and reinforces your commitment to a healthier diet.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text="Okay.
