Harder To lose Weight :
Drinking sugared soft drinks for just a month changes the body permanently so it’s becomes more difficult to lose weight, a new study has claimed. Avoid soft drinks , as they not only just pile on the pounds / kgs because of the calories in them, they also alter the way your body burns fuel. In result of which your muscles grow to ‘prefer’ sugar to fat as a fuel, and thus losing weight becomes harder, as said by a study.
“This study proves our concerns over sugary drinks have been correct.Not only can regular sugar intake acutely change our body metabolism, in fact it seems that our muscles are able to sense the sugars and make our metabolism more inefficient, not only in the present but in the future as well, ” said Hans-Peter Kubis of Britain’s Bangor University, who led the research.
“In fact, it seems that our muscles are able to sense the sugars and make our metabolism more inefficient , not only in the present but in the future aswell,” Kubis added. The researcher warned that soft drinks can compromise long term health and advised people to substitute it with plain water instead otherwise you know thw consequences that will never let you lose weight.
And worryingly this effect lasts long-term which can raise levels of blood glucose leading to diabetes.
His researchers also showed that isolated muscle cells identify and respond to the sugary diet, and switch how they use the fuel. ” Together with our findings about how drinking soft drinks dulls the perception of sweetness, our new results give a stark warning against regularly drinking sugar sweetened drinks ” added Hans-Peter Kubis.
The move to an inefficient metabolism was seen in male and female participants who were lightly active, and drinking soft drinks for just four weeks.
These factors show that regular use of sugar sweetened soft drinks drives alterations in muscles similar to those found in people with obesity problems and type 2 diabetes.
