We all want to look young, be physically active and keep a bright mind and good memory as long as possible. Science has already learned many of the obstacles to doing so. One of them is excessive consumption of sweets. Excess sugar in the body affects not only the function of the pancreas, but also the structures that keep the skin young. The term "sugar face" was coined. We understand what it is, how to avoid this problem and what to do if it is already there.
Increased levels of stress and anxiety do not give up the sweet. Researcher Rimke Baker explained why it's easy to break down in an attempt to eat fewer sweets.

Japanese scientists found that olive oil before eating helped to contain the increase in blood glucose in mice with type 2 diabetes. Fats slowed gastric emptying, so carbohydrates entered the small intestine gradually. It wasn’t just the digestive rate, because olive oil also affected intestinal hormones and vagus nerve signals. In addition, researchers found that glucagon, which normally raises blood sugar levels, was also involved in limiting its spikes under certain conditions.
Tea lovers are less likely to experience heart and vascular disease. Researchers from China spoke about the connection between the habit of drinking tea and health.
Scientists analyzed data of almost 486 thousand people. In nine years, participants have reported almost 15,000 cases of vascular disease. Those who drank tea were 12% less likely to be at risk, and those who did not smoke and moved a lot were 46% less likely to be at risk.
