8. Digestive Discomfort
Sugar disrupts your gut balance, leading to bloating, gas, or even diarrhea. Processed sugars, in particular, harm the “good” bacteria that keep your digestion smooth.
9. Poor Sleep Quality
Sugary foods eaten close to bedtime can spike energy levels, making it hard to fall asleep. They can also interfere with your deep, restorative sleep cycles.
10. Frequent Illness or Weakened Immunity
Excess sugar suppresses your immune system, making it harder to fight off colds, flu, and infections.
