These can be classed as \u2018Bad Sugar\u2019.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3>Avoid addictive carb foods<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">It is these <a href=\"\/easyway-weight-loss\/carb-cravings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">addictive carb foods<\/a> which are less obvious when it comes to sugar and carb addiction; foods such as pasta, pastry, bread, rice, noodles, potatoes, fries, and chips\/crisps. These can be classed as \u2018Bad Carbs\u2019.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3>Stop eating addictive junk and fast food<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">Most processed foods contain refined sugar and processed carbs and are therefore addictive. This includes all \u2018fast foods\u2019, ready-made-sauces, ready meals etc.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h3>Change what you drink and avoid addictive sugar drinks<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">Any drink containing refined sugar but also, for some people, drinks containing concentrated levels of fruit (smoothies and juice) can also cause a problem with blood sugar levels (which is involved in \u2018Bad Sugar\u2019 and \u2018Bad Carb\u2019 addiction).<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h3>Understand sugar addiction and carb addiction<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">It\u2019s the addictive nature of \u2018Bad Sugar &amp; Bad Carbs\u2019 which make it difficult for some people to have \u201conly a couple of cookies\u2019 or \u201cjust two chocolates from the box\u201d or \u201ca small bowl of pasta\u201d.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>\n<h3>Moderation ISN\u2019T the key when it comes to sugar &amp; carb addiction<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">If you understand that a heroin addict can\u2019t have a little heroin every now and then, and that an alcohol addict can\u2019t have an occasional alcoholic drink every now and then, then you\u2019ll understand why a sugar &amp; carb addict has a problem moderating their intake of addictive food.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>\n<h3>When what you consume is nutritionally bankrupt you overeat and crave it<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">Refined sugar and processed carbs have little, if any, nutritional value. They are generally flavourless and unpalatable and are therefore mixed with \u2018real food\u2019 such as fruit or vegetable sauces. It is the (often tiny) element of \u2018real food\u2019 in the item that provides any nutrition of note e.g. the tomato sauce on pasta. Your body and brain will not recognise that you have eaten until you have taken on an adequate amount of nutrition so you tend to eat the processed or starchy carbs until you feel uncomfortably \u2018stuffed\u2019. With refined sugar you tend to eat more and more of the item and feel disgusted with yourself once you have done so e.g. chocolates, cookies, sweets\/candy.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li>\n<h3>Stop putting junk food into your body and the inclination to eat it disappears<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"smaller_text\">The only way to achieve this permanently is to change the way you think about junk food, bad sugar, and bad carbs.<\/p>\n<p>If you feel you are going without something that you used to enjoy you\u2019ll be tempted to go back to the addiction, however if you realise that you\u2019ve escaped something that was causing you to be enslaved and ill then you feel free.

The type of fats involved also cause hyperlipidaemia risk which increases fatty deposits in arteries and the risk of blockages and the high salt content of junk food raises blood pressure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The increased fatty deposits in arteries and higher blood pressure leads to an increased risk of stroke<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Brain<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Glucose is the brain\u2019s primary source of fuel but if it is exposed to excessive levels by the consumption of junk food (yes most savoury fast food is full of damaging levels of processed carbohydrates &amp; refined sugar) the excess sugar impairs both our cognitive skills and our self-control. It creates a <a href=\"\/easyway-quit-sugar\/sugar-cravings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">craving for more and more sugar <\/a>which leads to overeating, and subsequent weight gain.<\/p>\n<p>Elevated blood glucose causes blood vessel damage and is the main cause of the vascular complications of diabetes, leading to other problems, such as damage to blood vessels in the brain and eyes causing retinopathy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Long-term diabetics show progressive brain damage leading to deficits in learning, memory, motor speed, and other cognitive functions and even those without diabetes who have high levels of sugar consumption experience lower scores on tests of cognitive function.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Heart<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The more processed carbs &amp; sugar that you consume (such as those contained in pizza, pasta, starchy carbs (potatoes\/fries\/chips) the greater your risk of heart disease. A sugar &amp; processed carb heavy diet can increase your risk of dying of heart disease even if you aren&#8217;t overweight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The increased fatty deposits in arteries, higher blood pressure and increased pressure on the heart leads to an increased risk of stroke<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Gastrointestinal system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you consume foods containing added sugar or processed\/starchy carbohydrates, glucose and fructose are released into the bloodstream. The pancreas then releases insulin, a hormone which converts glucose to energy.<\/p>\n<p>Insulin works to regulate the flow of glucose to and from the blood. It also allows the muscles to get the glucose they need from the blood supply.<\/p>\n<p>Insulin resistance occurs when the cells in muscles, fat and the liver do not respond properly to insulin and thus cannot easily absorb glucose from the bloodstream. As a result, the body needs higher levels of insulin to help glucose enter cells. This, in turn, causes the pancreas to produce more and more insulin. But when this is no longer possible, excess sugar builds up in the bloodstream. This leads to type II diabetes or prediabetes.<\/p>\n<p>Gastroparesis can be caused by high blood sugar \u2013 with food entering the stomach not being broken down, and sitting in the stomach for a long period of time \u2013 causing gas, bloating, indigestion and heartburn.<\/p>\n<p>Excess sugar that cannot be broken down and absorbed by the body will be left to sit in the bowels, where it ferments. This sugar moves more slowly through the large intestine, feeding bad bacteria and yeast, and causing a build-up of gas. This gas can cause cramping, spasms, and pain.<\/p>\n<p>Although absorbing water is the main job of the large intestine, sugar can draw water into the large intestine or at least prevent it from being absorbed properly. This can lead to bloating or heaviness in the gut.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This can lead to type II diabetes or prediabetes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reproductive system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Processed\/starchy carbohydrates &amp; refined sugar play a primary role in determining blood sugar and insulin levels. If blood sugar and\/or insulin levels are too high, reproductive hormone levels can be disrupted which can have an effect of ovulation and therefore, fertility. A poor quality diet including the consumption of added sugar, processed &amp; starchy carbs has been linked with poorer egg quality and pregnancy outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>The health of sperm is a primary factor in male fertility, with markers including concentration (sperm count), morphology (sperm shape and size), motility (sperm\u2019s ability to move) and semen volume. For men, research has found sugar-sweetened beverage consumption is correlated with lower sperm motility in otherwise healthy young men and that men consuming caffeinated energy and soft drinks may experience reduced fertility. It is likely that the consumption of processed &amp; starchy carbs have a similar effect \u2013 as well as factors caused by the resulting obesity and type 2 diabetes issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A poor quality diet can lead to lower fertility in both men and women.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Immune system<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Studies have shown spikes in sugar intake suppress your immune system. When your immune system is compromised, you are more likely to get sick. If you eat a lot of foods and beverages high in sugar or refined\/starchy carbohydrates, which the body processes as sugar, you may be reducing your body&#8217;s ability to ward off disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is likely to weaken your immune system.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Skin<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you eat lots of sugar and refined\/starchy carbohydrates levels of blood sugar in the body become high and remain so.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, sugar molecules permanently bond to proteins, including the collagen in the skin \u2013 a process known as glycation.<\/p>\n<p>This produces a chemical reaction in the skin, that makes its surface stiffer and less flexible and leads to premature ageing making skin look duller and more leathery, and more wrinkled.<\/p>\n<p>It results in the three signs of ageing that most people wish to avoid \u2013 wrinkles, lines and discoloration. It can even lead to your skin sagging as collagen and elastin are damaged and become misshapen.<\/p>\n<p>Long term<\/p>\n<p>This is likely to lead to premature ageing of the skin making it look duller, more leathery, and more wrinkled.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Mood, Anxiety &amp; Depression<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Short term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Eating too much sugar may increase your risk of mood disorders, including depression, &amp; high intakes of unhealthy, processed carbohydrates, such as white bread, pizza, pasta, and pastries, cause blood sugars to rise and fall rapidly causing violent mood swings, stress, and anger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Long term<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This increased the risk of mood disorders such as depression and anger.<a name=\"what\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"formatted-text  formatted-text--background\">\n\t<div class=\"container container--large\">\n\t\t<h2 style=\"text-align: left\">What happens when you stop eating junk &amp; fast food?<\/h2>\n<h3>Time line for improvements when you cut out processed\/starchy carbs &amp; refined sugar<\/h3>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;width: 100%\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 19.0795%;background-color: grey\"><strong class=\"larger_text\">Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 80.9205%;background-color: grey;text-align: left\"><strong class=\"larger_text\">Effect<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 19.0795%\">\n<p>2 days<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 80.9205%;text-align: left\">\n<p>Within two days your blood sugar levels should return to normal.
