This need fortunately almost disappears around the sixteen years although there are adults who conserve this addiction.

The sweet is a type of flavor present especially in foods with an important presence of sugars, one of the sweet substances par excellence. It is considered one of the most pleasant flavors.
ResponderEliminarHaving the need to eat something sweet, is a state that some people have to eat something sweet. It is a need that makes us eat foods with a lot of sugar. The person who suffers this need feels the need to put something that contains a lot of sugar in his mouth. This need, in most people, is due to a drop in blood sugar levels. After ingesting some sweet we notice a sugar high that makes us be satisfied, more active and happy.
I consider myself addicted to sweets, since every day I have the need to eat something sweet, something that contains a lot of sugar, I do not know why I have this need, but every day I eat foods that contain a lot of sugar, since my body Ask for sweet foods.
In conclusion, I think that people with this type of need should control us, since this can cause diseases such as diabetes or obesity, we should follow a balanced diet, replacing the sweet food with other foods with less sugar.
