One of the most common habits that is destructive to people's health is an addiction to foods and drinks containing sugar.

Sugar consumption. With an excess of sugar in the diet, a person's risk of developing vascular and heart diseases increases – that's why the habit of eating sweets and other sugar substitutes every day is among those that imperceptibly destroy health.

“Numerous studies have proven that excessive sugar consumption directly is associated with an increased risk of stroke and heart attack,” foreign doctors Frank Hu, Hicham Scali, and Chika Anekwe stated in an interview.

Inactivity. The habit of sitting a lot and moving a minimum amount of time during the day can lead to diabetes and heart disease. According to cardiologist Hicham Scali, the more a person sits, the more likely it is that insulin levels will increase in the body, which will contribute to obesity.

A calm attitude towards belly fat. Many people perceive their “beer” belly as completely normal and do not try to fight it in any way – for example, they do not seek to do exercises or adjust their diet.

“Persistently ignoring visceral fat on the belly destroys health – according to recent studies, abdominal obesity is associated with the risk of developing diabetes, hypertension, asthma, dementia, and some types of cancer,” doctors warned.

They see the reason in the fact that fat present in the abdomen produces substances that activate inflammation, which affects internal organs.
