Weakened joints

Joint problems can affect how you function every day. It's extremely painful and this can be challenging because you won't be able to enjoy life properly.

If you don't have any condition that can directly cause the joint pains you're experiencing, sugar might be the underlying reason. And if you already have a condition like arthritis, sugar can make it worse.

Excess sugar causes inflammation of the joints and as a result, you will struggle with this issue.

Weakened immunity

A low immunity leaves you exposed to all sorts of bacterial, fungal, and viral infections. That is why we are always encouraged to eat immune-boosting foods and reduce those that can affect your body's protective mechanism.

Too much sugar is known to lower your immunity diet to the increased production of inflammatory proteins. You have to reduce your sugar intake to keep your immune system healthy.

Organ damage

We all want to live a long and fulfilling life, right? There are certain things that will be out of our control but surely, we can make adjustments when it comes to our food choices.

Excess sugar in your body can do a lot of damage to your liver, kidney, pancreas and heart. You can't easily replace all of them once they are damaged so this is something that you should really think about before you buy that extra bottle of soda.
