Eyelid puffiness reduced
Swelling of the eyelids is often related to excessive sugar intake and sodium retention. When dietary sugar levels decrease and insulin levels weaken, the body will no longer retain excessive water, and the swelling of the eyelids will gradually disappear.
Reduce abdominal fat
Excess sugar is first stored in the liver, forming liver fat, and then overflows into the abdomen, causing belly fat to increase. After lowering blood sugar levels, the burden on the liver is reduced, and visceral fat and abdominal fat will begin to decrease.
Appetite and cravings decreased significantly
Sugar continuously stimulates appetite and cravings for carbohydrates. After two weeks without sugar, these cravings will significantly decrease, making it less likely to "can't stop" eating sweets or snacks.
More emotionally stable
After giving up sugar, mood swings decrease and feelings become more stable. This is related to the fact that blood sugar levels no longer fluctuate drastically and the body can provide a stable energy supply.
More focused
A high-sugar diet can easily cause "brain fog." After stopping sugar intake, thoughts become clearer, attention span improves, and the mind feels more "awake."
Improvement of body edema
Sugar causes the body to retain water, even leading to edema where pressing on the skin leaves an indentation. After cutting out sugar, these symptoms will significantly lessen, with noticeable improvements in the ankles, calves, and face.
The eyes, kidneys, arteries, and nerves will all be protected.
Excessive sugar intake can affect intraocular pressure, the retina, kidneys, blood vessels, and the nervous system. Reducing sugar intake can lessen the burden on these tissues and maintain long-term health.
Reduced inflammation and pain in the body
Joint pain, gastrointestinal discomfort, and aches are often related to inflammation caused by excessive sugar intake. After two weeks of abstaining from sugar, you will begin to feel a reduction in pain and swelling.
Improve sleep quality
High sugar intake can lead to problems such as difficulty falling asleep, waking up in the middle of the night, and leg discomfort. Reducing sugar intake can result in deeper, more stable sleep and make it easier to fall asleep.
More peaceful and stable
Sugar depletes the body's vitamin B1 , and a lack of B1 can make people anxious and unable to relax. Quitting sugar can make the nervous system more relaxed and make people feel more stable overall.
Skin condition improved
Oily skin, dryness, dullness, blackheads, or acne are often related to excessive sugar intake. After reducing sugar intake, skin tone becomes more even, and the skin surface will have a more natural and healthy glow.
Don't overlook "refined starch".
Even if snacks, cookies, and breakfast cereals are labeled "sugar-free," the refined starches they contain will still be quickly converted into sugar in the body, having a stronger impact on blood sugar. For example:
- bread
- cookie
- oatmeal
- potato chips
- cake
- Rice, white flour products
These can all cause a faster rise in blood sugar.
Option: Low-sugar cereals based on nuts, seeds, coconut, almonds, etc., to reduce blood sugar stress.
