When Sugar Enters The Body

When we consume food with sugar in it, our body will use it in two ways, it will either use it for energy or store it as fat. If it is a moderate amount of sugar, our bodies can use fiber to help convert it into energy without any left over to convert to fat. However, when you take in a high amount of sugar, your pancreas will detect this and release the hormone called insulin to handle the extra sugar.

Insulin has the responsibility of keeping the level of sugar in our bloodstream regulated, this means there will be more insulin released by the pancreas with the more sugar consumed. Insulin is what is responsible for the lowering of blood sugar. Insulin helps store sugar in our bodies as glycogen in fat cells, and glucose, or energy, in the liver.

Glycogen is actually triglycerides, the fatty deposits created by the liver in the blood to  and build your body’s tissues. Your liver will react to high doses of insulin and sugar by releasing more triglycerides. This release of extra triglycerides signals your body to store abdominal fat for later use.

What this means is consuming high amounts of sugar, fructose especially, our body will be storing it as fat, especially around the waistline. The process of releasing high amounts of insulin to fight off sugar will lead to your cells becoming insulin resistant, which leads to type 2 diabetes. When there is a resistant to insulin in your body, your metabolism will no longer function properly, this will lead to a gaining of weight.

This is how may sugar effects in our body, hope my points will help you to understand it's bad effects,
