Why Sugar Is Bad

It accelerates raging.

 "Sugar is a primary contributor to the ageing process," Dr.  explains. He says fructose, the sweet molecule in sugar, is seven times more potent than the glucose portion of sugar, forming oxygen radicals, leading to higher rates of cell damage and death, and contributing to chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. It speeds along the ageing process in general.

It "browns" your tissues.

 In a way, we "rust" as we age. Oxidative stress turns our tissues "brown;" this is known as the Maillard reaction. Chronically overindulging in excess added sugar will speed up this browning process.

It makes your liver fat.

When you overdose the mitochondria in your liver with sugar, the organ has no choice but to take the excess and turn it into liver fat. Some of this fat never makes it out of the liver, leading to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This forces the pancreas to make extra insulin so the damaged liver can do its job.

The organ fat build-up isn't necessarily obvious on the outside, either. A 2012 study in the Journal of Clinical Nutrition found people who ate 1,000 extra calories of sugary foods saw just a 2 percent increase in body weight, but a 27 percent increase in liver fat.

It makes you an addict.

Dopamine is one your body's feel-good neurotransmitters. But eating too much fructose shuts down healthy signal in the body, meaning it takes more and more sugar to fire off signals that bring pleasure. 

It annihilates your arteries.

Over time, that bad habit of eating too much added sugar will start seriously irritating your endothelium, the sheath of special cells coating the inside of your blood vessels. Glucose glops up on the finger-like feelers of the cells, making them less sensitive, which could impact oxygen sent to your organs.
