Kuye kwabikwa ukuthi amaMelika ajwayelekile adla amathisipuni angu-22 ushukela ngosuku. Njengoba i-American Heart Association incoma ukuthi ukungenisa ushukela angeke kudlulele amathisipuni ayisithupha nsuku zonke kwabesifazane namashukela ayisishiyagalolunye nsuku zonke amadoda, kulula ukubona ukuthi ushukela owongeziwe luholela kanjani ekukhokhweni uma kuziwa ezimbangela ezinkulu zokukhuluphala kwesifo sikashukela nesifo sikashukela .
Kuyini Is Sugar Added?
Igama elithi "ushukela elingeziwe" libhekisela futhi lihlanganisa zonke ushukela ezongezwa ekudleni, kunezinye ezenzeka ngokwemvelo. Ngokwesimo, ushukela okwenzeka ngokwemvelo, yiwo afana ne-fructose ne-lactose, etholakala ngokwemvelo ezitsheni nobisi, ngokulandelana. Ngokwesinye isandla, ushukela ongeziwe, yiwo afakwa ekudleni ngesikhathi sokukhiqiza noma ukucubungula, ngesikhathi sokulungiselela, noma etafuleni ngaphambi kokudla.
Ukwengezwa kwe-Sugar Goes ngamagama amaningi
Ngenxa yokuthi abakhiqizi bokudla baye bathola izindlela eziningi nemithombo yokudla okusuka ku-ketchup kuya ku-cereal kuya kweziphuzo ezithambile, kungaba nzima ukukhomba ushukela owengeziwe ezintweni zezithako emalebula okudla. Kodwa-ke, ngokwazi amagama amaningi abonisa isithako esisetshenzisiwe noma soshukela, ungaba umthengi onolwazi futhi ukhethe imikhiqizo ngaphandle kokushukela okweneziwe.
Amagama ajwayelekile kunawo wonke afakwe ushukela afaka phakathi noma yisiphi isithako esiphelela "-ose" - njengama-maltose, dextrose, sucrose, fructose, i-lactose-kanye nesiraphu ephezulu ye-fructose ye-corn, i-molasses, uju, ushukela wamakhambi, i-sweetener yegesi, umoba okhuphukile ijusi, ushukela oluhlaza, isiraphu, kanye nejusi yezithelo kugxila.
Yisiphi Isiphuzo Esineziqu Zokudla?
Ngokusho kwe-American Heart Association, imithombo emikhulu ye-ushukela owongeziwe ekudleni kwethu iziphuzo eziphuzile, amaswidi, amakhekhe, amakhukhi, iziphuzo zezithelo, izidakamizwa zobisi kanye nemikhiqizo yobisi (njenge-ayisikhilimu kanye ne-yogurt elimnandi), kanye nosawoti. Iziphuzo eziningi ezithandekayo neziphuzo zezithelo ziqukethe ushukela owengeziwe kakhulu, eqinisweni, ukuthi ziye zabizwa ngokuthi "ushukela omanzi" ngabanye ochwepheshe.
I-airele ye-cereal, isibonelo, isiye yaziwa kakhulu ngesamba soshukela esingeziwe esingatholakala kwimikhiqizo lapho. Kuyinto engavamile ukuthola okusanhlamvu okuvela emakethe awaziwayo aneshukela elingeziwe njengesithako esikhulu kunazo zonke, okwenza amaphesenti angu-50 noma ngaphezulu kokuqukethwe ibhokisi lokusanhlamvu.
Omunye umthombo omkhulu woshukela owenezelwe osanda kufakwa umlilo yiziphuzo ezithambile. Ngokusho koMnyango Wezolimo wase-United States (i-USDA), isilinganiso esingama-12-ounce angama-cola aqukethe amathisipuni angaphezu kuka-8 ushukela! Ngakho-ke, ngokuphuza isiphuzo esisodwa esincane esiphuzile, owesifazane wayebe esedlulile kakade ngokuphakanyiswa kwakhe okushukela nsuku zonke (ngamashuuni ayisithupha), futhi indoda yayizofinyeleleka kuye (ngamapuni ayisipuni ayisishiyagalolunye).
Ukuphuza kweziphuzo ezincane kungase kugugile
Njengokungathi konke lokhu kwakunganele, ucwaningo lwamuva lubonisa ukuthi ukuphuza ushukela-iziphuzo ezinomsoco ezifana nama-sodas ahlotshaniswa nama- telomeres amfushane (okuyi-marker ye-aging - i-telomeres ende, ekhuluma nje, iyimpawu yobusha, kuyilapho i-telomere isinciphisa iyinkomba yokuguga). Lokhu, futhi, kwakuhlobene nengozi ephakeme yezifo zenhliziyo nesifo sikashukela.
Abaphenyi bokucwaninga baphetha ngokuthi "ukusetshenziswa okuvamile kwe-sugar-sweet sodas kungase kube nomthelela ekuthuthukiseni isifo samagciwane ngokuguga kwegciwane eliphuthumayo." Ngamanye amazwi, ngokukodwa kokunye kwesiguli esingeziwe-ushukela, ukuphuza ama-sodas kungadala amangqamuzana akho - ngakho-ke, wena.
