In this episode of Sweet Liberation Podcast, ZUKR Founders Nabila and Luke dive into the effect of sugar on one’s body. They share how people often ask about their energy levels as parents and grandparents, and how people just assume sugar is necessary for energy. They highlight the negative effects of consuming too much sugar, such as energy crashes. They then dive into the biological processes of sugar consumption and emphasize that our bodies can convert food into energy without needing added sugars. They also discuss Insulin release, the common experience with energy spikes and crashes, the hidden sugars often unclear on food labels, why we feel sleepy after meals, and important dietary adjustments for older people.
