I have stopped drinking milk tea and eating puff egg tarts from the second day... In fact, I have lost weight before, and it is considered a success. My mental state is really good. Later, I don't know why I suddenly started to be obsessed with desserts, and I couldn't help it. , Compared to gaining weight, what bothers me the most is that I have become impetuous for no reason, lack of concentration, and decreased willpower, so I want to understand what sugar is at the source, and what mechanism makes me sometimes excited and sometimes lethargic, so I just watched this movie.
Aside from the American connotation of the movie and the many stabs at grocers, and the fact that it seems to demonize fructose a bit (because I still don't know what's good about it), the rest of the production, the themes, are pretty good, through the real The real-life experiments, popular science of interesting images, and extended stories made me really understand sugar, and it made me less interested in sugar all of a sudden.
The following is a casual record when watching a movie (for personal use)
1. Thin outside and fat inside: Fructose accumulates in the waist and abdomen, which can cause metabolic diseases (type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease)
2. Fructose is super rare and super naughty. If the backup battery is full, fructose will be quickly converted into fat and left in the liver, which may lead to insulin resistance and diabetes. Another condition is the conversion of fat into triglycerides, which can cause obesity to clog arteries and cause heart disease.
3. Carbohydrates are converted into insulin. If the insulin in the body is already processing glucose, it will order the fat cells to retain fat, effectively suspending the fat burning process.
4. If your glucose intake has been up and down, then your mental state will be unstable. You may be mentally awake when you first take sugar for 45 minutes, but then immediately groggy and inattentive (and this is not pleasant.) , is hyperactive, even a little crazy), and the repeated emotions will make you anxious or even panic disorder. If your blood sugar doesn't go up and down, you'll be more awake. 5. It is fat and protein that make us feel full. Low-fat foods do not make us feel full.
6. The sugar equivalent of a glass of smoothie is equal to four peaches, nine limes, thirty lemons and thirty strawberries.
7. Skin problems are usually related to the decline of liver function. If a person's diet contains a lot of refined sugar, it will be reflected in the eyes, causing bags under the eyes, and it may also be reflected in the skin. It is also very likely to be very listless.
8. When you see a milkshake, dopamine is produced, and the brain says: eat it, replenish energy quickly, to stabilize the mood, and then we eat it, at this time, opioids and beta endorphins will be secreted, resulting in a sense of pleasure. The sugar-stimulated areas are the same as nicotine, cocaine, and sex-stimulated areas, but unfortunately the feeling doesn't last. If we eat sugar regularly and build this pleasure-rewarding mechanism, we develop a subconscious or unconscious habit that is easily triggered by more pictures of sugary foods.
9. We're all being scammed by snack giants. They convey the idea that you're gaining weight mainly because you're eating too many calories and you're not exercising, leading you to think that the sugar in a lollipop is the same as the sugar in a broccoli, and you're gaining weight either because of binge drinking Binge eating is either because you're lazy, which obviously isn't the case, and different calories have significantly different effects on the body. The result of their methods is that we feel like failures when we are addicted or overweight, and perhaps the greed that makes us overweight or sick is exactly what the food companies do.
10. It may not be the calories that cause obesity, but the source of the calories.
11. Quitting sugar is like quitting smoking, but after two to four weeks your sugar cravings will suddenly vanish.
