1, the high energy density of candy

To get the same satiety, eating sweets is easy to exceed the calorie limit. The heat of a small egg tart is as high as 240 kilocalories, which is higher than that of two large apples. The two most common Beijing red cakes can provide 300-400 kilocalories, and a bowl of 2 rice is less than 360 kilocalories. Eating two big apples will make you feel full, and so will a bowl of rice. However, if you eat cakes or egg tarts with the same calories, your stomach will not feel full at all. They are often used as snacks after meals. Why? Because of its small size, it does not occupy the stomach, making people want to eat more and more.

2. Sweets promote insulin secretion.

After eating sweets, human blood sugar rises sharply, which promotes a lot of insulin secretion and converts excess blood sugar into glycogen or fat for storage. Insulin is such a hormone that promotes fat synthesis and inhibits fat decomposition. Moreover, insulin can also increase appetite, because after blood sugar is removed by insulin, the blood sugar level drops obviously, so hunger comes again and I want to eat more sweets, so eating sweets is an addictive thing. Eating sweets is easy to get fat, but this is only one aspect of the harm. The body secretes a large amount of insulin for a long time, which is prone to insulin resistance and is likely to turn into type II diabetes.

3. Sweet food is an important hiding place for trans fatty acids.

Snack bars, bakeries and all kinds of biscuits, cakes and pies on supermarket shelves are hiding places of trans fatty acids. You know, the fattening effect of trans fatty acids is seven times that of ordinary saturated fat, and the effect of fat belly is the most obvious. 1g trans fatty acids need to be metabolized for 5 1 day in healthy people to be completely excreted. Eating these things for a long time will inevitably lead to metabolic syndrome-related diseases, obesity and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which will seriously endanger health.
