Nutritionist named non-obvious causes of rapid aging

Nutritionist Olga Panova spoke about the non-obvious causes of rapid aging.

In an interview with Radio 1 on Wednesday, March 25, the specialist explained how sweets, wrinkles and the development of diabetes are related. The expert explained that the habit of adding sweets "for mood," even in the absence of hunger, can seriously affect health, especially in women. According to her, excess sugar contributes to the appearance of wrinkles, as it interferes with the formation of collagen and accelerates the aging process.

Panova noted that the problem lies not only in the obvious sweets, but also in the hidden sugar found in sauces and pastries, as well as in the habit of finishing a meal with dessert without a real need. She added that people often eat sweets "for company" or out of inertia, and in such cases it is better to switch attention, for example, to communication, which can have the same emotional effect.

The specialist stressed that it is important to distinguish between food as part of a ritual, rare pleasure and uncontrolled consumption of sugar, which can lead to obesity and insulin resistance.
