Sugar is composed of glucose, which is required for almost all processes involved in metabolism. It may be inferred that the sugar is useful, but, to the disappointment of all who enjoy sweets, is not so.
Why? Because refined sugar, sweeteners, such as honey or maple syrup, brown sugar and white flour are carbohydrates, which do not contain essential nutrients, or contain them in small quantities. Thus, the body is supplied with pure carbohydrates that do not have a great significance to metabolism. To ensure that we give body substances necessary, as well as candies there is need to have other products, which means eating more calories than they are spending, resulting in the addition of extra weight.
Those who eat sugar need vitamin B1 (thiamine). Because in digest carbohydrates and transforming them into glucose, which is required. Once the sugar and other sweeteners do not contain vitamin B1, or have it in very small amounts, it must be provided to the Agency with other products. Thus, the sugar has every right to be called a thief in respect of vitamin B1. Raw grain Products, beens and potatoes, on the contrary, along with other vitamins, minerals and trace elements contain enough thiamine, which maintains active our brains and ensure that we have "nerves of steel".
That doesn't mean you have to give up completely sugar. Consume sweets sparingly and with "additives" will certainly have a good mood. So, if you eat sweet food, pay attention that your menu, at the same time included products that contain vitamin B1.
It cannot be said that a sweet dessert is harmful. Simply, we must turn to increasingly natural sweeteners.
