Why do people eat sugar?

The advantages of eating sugar are: correcting hypoglycemia and supplementing energy.

1. Correct hypoglycemia: For patients who need long-term insulin treatment and have too strict blood sugar control, hypoglycemia is easy to occur during exercise. At this time, eating sugar in moderation is the fastest treatment.

2. Replenish energy: when taking a bath, the whole body capillaries dilate, sweating increases, heat consumption increases, and some will have symptoms such as dizziness and nausea. If you eat some sugar before taking a bath, you can relieve fatigue and fatigue after taking a bath and prevent collapse.

3. Vomiting or diarrhea: If you have symptoms of digestive dysfunction such as diarrhea or vomiting, you can drink a certain amount of sugar salt water, which can prevent dehydration and electrolyte disorder and reduce gastrointestinal burden.

In addition, eating sugar can bring people a sense of pleasure, but eating sugar should be moderate.

Sugar is an important energy source for human body. Sugar can supplement energy, maintain blood sugar and provide nutrients needed for liver metabolism, but diabetics should be careful to eat it.

1. Replenish energy: Because plant starch and animal glycogen are both forms of energy storage, the human body can replenish energy after eating sugar in moderation.

2. Maintain blood sugar: Because sugar is easily digested and absorbed by human body, blood sugar can rise after eating sugar for 3 minutes, so it is suitable for patients with hypoglycemia.

3. Supplementing nutrients needed by liver metabolism: Proper amount of sugar can improve the body's absorption of calcium, so sugar can provide nutrients needed for metabolism in the process of liver detoxification metabolism.

Note that although sugar has many benefits, it should be eaten in moderation, not in excess. Especially for diabetics, we should be careful in diet, otherwise it will easily lead to aggravation of the disease.
