We should not forget about oral diseases. This includes not only caries, but also premature tooth loss.

Sugar has a negative effect on the skin. Premature aging is possible. The skin becomes dull, wrinkles appear, and elasticity deteriorates.

The safe daily sugar intake is up to 25 grams. But ideally, as the specialist noted, it is better to refuse such a product. But you should not exclude sugar that the body gets from vegetables and fruits.
