Large amounts of fructose are processed in the liver, where some of it can be converted into fat, potentially contributing to fatty liver disease. Diets high in added sugar have also been associated with a greater risk of heart disease and chronic inflammation. Sugar can affect the skin as well through glycation, a process that may damage collagen and elastin and contribute to premature skin aging.<\/p>\n<p>Other effects can appear more quickly. Rapid rises and falls in blood sugar may leave some people feeling tired, irritable, or hungry again soon after eating.

The article recommends choosing water or unsweetened drinks, checking food labels for hidden sugars, eating more whole foods such as fruit, and including protein and healthy fats with meals.
