What age group eats the most sugar? It turns out, those in the 11-18 age group consume the most sugar. Many people don’t realize that all carbs turn into sugar in the body. The only exception is fiber. Fiber is a carbohydrate, but it doesn’t turn into sugar in the body.

Vegetables are great because they are low in sugar and high in fiber. But, most fruits are actually grown in a certain way to have more sugar so they will taste sweeter. For example, a honey crisp apple has 19g of sugar. The only types of fruit I would consume (in small amounts) are berries, like blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries.

With a normal blood sugar level, a person would have only about one teaspoon of sugar in all of their blood. That one teaspoon of sugar can actually be made by your own body. You don’t have to consume carbs or sugar. The body can make the sugar it needs from fat or protein.

Potential problems that can happen when a person consumes high amounts of sugar:
• Diabetes
• Heart problems (high blood pressure, clots, stroke)
• Bad teeth
• Bad breath
• Problems with the brain (ADD, brain fog, irritability, anxiety, depression, low cognitive function)
• Problems with hormones
• Skin problems
• Joint inflammation
• Low endurance
• Tiredness
• Problems with the eyes
• Belly fat
• Nerve pain
• Problems with the liver

A good exercise might be to take one day and evaluate how much sugar you consume per day. You can even get an app to help you measure the carbohydrates you’re consuming to help give you an idea of how much sugar you consume.
