myhive Romania: The Health Expert Moment

Theme of the week: Sugar & health

Dear myhive community,

Does "Sugar Rush" tell you anything?  🧁🍔🍰🍬🍩 We all know that sugar and processed foods are not good for the body, but it seems that sometimes we do not take this into account in our daily diet. The reminder for a healthy lifestyle comes from the expert of our community, dr Ana Maria Stoica, in the "The Health Expert Moment" section of the myhive-offices application.

1️⃣ The increase in sugar consumption in recent years is associated by specialists with some of the major public health problems, such as ADHD, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, obesity.

2️⃣ Sugar is a factor that highly affects the stress hormone cortisol. Constant fluctuations in blood glucose create one of the body’s most stressful conditions.

3️⃣ Controlling glycemic response by choosing foods that promote glycemic stability is a critical lifestyle change to relieve chronic stress.

Breakfast is a  very important meal, eating a breakfast with proper glycemic balance, which includes good sources of both protein and fat, starts the day off right. Also eating more fruits, vegetables and protein, limiting the caffeine, alcohol, fried foods and sweets are very important in keeping the body healthy.

For more details, we are waiting for you in the the myhive-offices application.
