Question by iluvsuperpenguin: Is it possible to get addicted to sugar?
I started eating sugar plain recently, mainly brown sugar and powdered sugar, and I can’t seem to stop! Is this a phsysical or only mental?
I guess it started when I was craving something sweet, and there was nothing around except sugar. But then I started to choose sugar over, say, chocolate.

Sugar gets into blood fast.

Gives brain and body a jump start.

Brain learns to like that and crave more as soon as sugar level in blood drops.
