Ive a sweet tooth for cakes,kuih and pastry and thats not a good habit.sugar addiction gives us a boost to our mood so we crave for chocolates,ice cream,candy ,fizzy drinks n cakes.ever heard of those who gets a craving for carrots and green vegetable?
Sugar gives a feel good effect so its addictive.we keep hankering for more as our glucose tolerance level spikes.
Now Malaysians take too much sugar from the teh tarik, ais kacang to kuih muih.Malaysians ate the heavyweights in SouthEast Asis,overeatimg 6 meals a day and lazy to exercise or even walk a short distance.No wonder the two top killers are NCDs like heart disease and diabetes.
I think we are not alone.South Africa is also facing a health crisis in lifestyle diseases with diabetes soaring due to obesity issues.a sedantary lifestyle and prevalence of fast food and junk food go hand in hand in causing health problems.
