NO SUGAR CHALLENGE

No sugar challenge

hey guys,

On my previous post ‘NO SOCIAL MEDIA CHALLENGE’, we talked about phones and media. Let’s do a healthy challenge this time!

No doubt, we love sugar and sugary product, be it mixed with tea or coffee or used to produce drinks and beverages.

The point is, it is taken daily, weekly and even monthly without a care and could cause different effects to the body.

There are numerous negative health implications consuming sugar causes. Some of these include:

• DIABETES

This is a no brainer. We have been hearing this for as long as can be remembered. It’s  known that diabetes is a deadly killer of not only the old but kids too.

So watch your sugar intake, too little is treatable but too much, that is where the problem lies.

• AGING

Don’t know if we know this but sugar actually speeds up aging. Sugar also acts as a catalyst meant to speed up our aging process when excessively consumed.

When consumed, it mixes with protein and produces AGEs that in turn causes stiffening of the skin, wrinkles, dark circles etc.

• CAVITY

This happens when sugar remnants from food,drinks or sweets are consumed by bacterias in our mouth. After feeding on this sugar, it is turned into harmful acids that causes tooth decay if not properly attended to. Hence,  the reason why we brush twice daily.

There are also other negative effects like obesity, high blood pressure, acne, cancer etc.

And positive effects like healthy skin, strong teeth, better heart, loss of weight etc.These are just a few reason why I avoid products with excess sugar and sugar itself and I think you should too.

THE CHALLENGE:

Do the following for a minimum of 7days?!

-Avoid sugary drinks

-Take less or no sugar

-Go healthy {do more of fruits and veges}

Do all this for a week straight guys, no cheating!!!!!.Hit comments lets know if you can do this no sugar challenge
