A bottle of 330 ml beer contains 7 cubes of sugar! And a piece of cream pastry roll or an ice cream double ball contains 4 pieces of sugar, which is exactly equal to the daily sugar intake. Hidden in the sweetness of sugar is the threat to human health. In the daily diet, people who prefer sweets will often lead to “sweet food syndrome” due to excessive sugar consumption. The following is the performance of mild patients with sweet food syndrome?
mild symptoms of sweet food syndrome:
Abnormal emotions, such as nameless troubles, bad mood, willfulness, impulsiveness and irritability. It can also be manifested as hair turning yellow and white, whole body bone casein pain, dental caries, children’s amblyopia and myopia. Serious cases can lead to hypertension and obesity. Obese people are easy to suffer from atherosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, breast cancer, etc. once they get sick, they will have clinical manifestations of these related diseases.
Experts suggest that people who lack exercise at ordinary times should not eat more than 2G of sugar every day, and heavy manual workers should not exceed 30g. Eat less chocolate and no sweets before going to bed. Sugar restricted diet is one of the non drug treatments to prevent obesity, atherosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease and diabetes.
And those who like to chew gum all day should also pay attention. Medical experts do not advocate chewing gum as a fashion, especially chewing gum too much and for too long may have adverse effects on health.
First of all, most chewing gum uses sucrose as the sweetener. When chewing gum, the sugar will stay in the mouth for a long time, and the cariogenic bacteria in the mouth will use sucrose to produce acidic substances, corrode the teeth, decalcify the teeth, and induce dental caries. Second, people who have filled their teeth with mercury containing materials should not chew gum. Studies have found that chewing gum often will damage the substances used for filling teeth in the mouth, release the amalgam therein, and cause the mercury content in blood and urine to exceed the standard, thus causing harm to the brain, central nervous system and kidney. In addition, chewing gum is also bad for children. Because children’s self-control ability is poor, they may swallow or enter the trachea by mistake if they keep gum in their mouth all day, endangering their lives. In addition, if you chew gum for a long time, your masticatory muscles will always be tense, which may lead to the habit of grinding your teeth in your sleep, which will affect your child’s sleep quality.
The doctor suggested that chewing gum should not exceed 15 minutes, and people with stomach diseases should not chew gum too much, because chewing gum for a long time will reflexively secrete a large amount of gastric acid. Especially in the fasting state, not only nausea, loss of appetite, acid reflux and other symptoms will appear, but also gastric ulcer, gastritis and other diseases may occur in the long run.
The mild symptoms of sweet tooth syndrome include that although chewing gum can strengthen teeth, if you don’t rinse your mouth after eating it, its sugar will also ferment in your mouth to produce acid, corrode your teeth, and form dental caries. In addition, gum contains additives such as rubber plasticizer, vulcanization accelerator and anti-aging agent, which have certain toxicity. The metabolite of plasticizer is phenol, which is highly toxic and can harm human health after being absorbed into blood through digestive tract.
