Sugar ration: How it shaped our health!
A study shows that less sugar in early childhood lowers the risk of diabetes and high blood pressure in old age.
Sugar ration: How it shaped our health!
In the 1950s, Great Britain experienced sugar, which lasted until it was lifted in 1953. A new research team has now examined the effects of this rationing on the health of around 60,000 people in a shocking way. The results are amazing: People who were affected by sugar ration during the first 1,000 days of their lives-from the conception to the second birthday-show a 35 percent lower risk of type 2 diabetes and 20 percent less for high blood pressure in adult life during adult life during adult life!
The consequences of sugar rationing
After the rationing ended, the sugar consumption of the British increased - they doubled their sugar consumption! The amounts of ration at that time roughly meet today's recommendations, but in Germany people now consume twice as much sugar on average. These disturbing numbers raise questions about how excessive sugar consumption affects our health.
However, a researcher who was not part of the study team warns of the results. He emphasizes that in the 1950s people's life and nutritional style changed fundamentally, which may not be sufficiently simple into the examination. These findings could have far -reaching effects on our nutrition and health.
