What foods should be avoided to fight sugar? How long should we persist in fighting sugar?

In the past two years, anti-sugar diet has become quite popular. So, if you want to resist sugar, what foods should you avoid eating? How long should you persist in resisting sugar?

To resist sugar, it is best to reduce the intake of high GI (high starch, high sweetness) foods, such as toast, steamed buns, ordinary bread, rice, noodles, honey, watermelon, and millet. This is because they can produce a lot of sugar in the body, which is not conducive to anti-glycation.

Glycation reactions occur in our bodies every day, so anti-glycation does not mean that the effect can be maintained for a certain period of time.

1. Low GI diet

GI refers to the glycemic index. The lower the GI, the longer and more complicated the final decomposition and absorption path of sugar will be, resulting in a relatively slower and less saccharification reaction. You can supplement dietary fiber by eating more vegetables, whole grains, etc. to reduce the intake of other sugars.

2. Strengthen exercise, maintain a regular work and rest schedule, and develop good living habits

Only by ensuring adequate sleep and exercising well can you quickly metabolize and excrete excess sugar from the body, and effectively reduce and alleviate glycation reactions and the harm caused by glycation reactions.

3. Choose anti-sugar products

Choosing some anti-glycation products that are supported by scientific evidence will have certain benefits for the skin.

It does have a certain whitening effect. The reason why people go against sugar in life is mainly because the human body will experience glycation, which mainly refers to the process of attaching sugar molecules to protein or lipid molecules without the control of enzymes. Glycation can cause continuous accumulation in the skin, leading to decreased skin elasticity, accelerated skin aging, and dull skin tone. Going against sugar can control these phenomena well, help improve the dull skin tone of the human body, maintain collagen and elastin, and make the human skin white and elastic, so going against sugar can indeed have a certain whitening effect.
