Perihal kecanduan gawai atau kopi mungkin Anda sudah pernah mendengarnya. Bagaimana dengan kecanduan gula?
Saat ini banyak orang yang mulai “ketergantungan dengan gula”. Sayangnya, perilaku tak sehat ini bisa memicu penyakit jantung, diabetes tipe 2, dan kenaikan berat badan.
Apakah Anda sekadar menyukai makanan atau minuman manis atau sudah mengalami kecanduan? Dikutip dari The Jakarta Post, inilah 6 tanda Anda kecanduan gula.
Apakah Anda mulai merasa bahwa konsumsi gula sehari-hari Anda berlebihan? Namun, apakah Anda menemukan diri untuk mulai “sembunyi-sembunyi” mengonsumsi makanan atau minuman manis agar tak diketahui orang? Atau bahkan Anda berusaha mencari pembenaran atas konsumsi gula berlebihan. Selalu mencari alasan atau pembenaran untuk mengonsumsi gula bisa jadi pertanda awal Anda kecanduan.
Ketika Anda mengomsumsi gula dalam jumlah besar tapi rasanya Anda tetap ngidam makanan manis, inilah pertanda Anda kecanduan gula.
Sayangnya konsumsi gula yang besar bisa menurunkan kadar gula darah dalam tubuh dan mendorong rasa ngidam yang lebih kuat.
Perut kenyang tapi masih menginginkan sajian penutup yang manis? Selain makan ketika sudah sangat kenyang, Anda juga harus memperhatikan pola makan Anda. Misalnya, apakah Anda sering ngemil saat tidak lapar, stress, atau bosan? Jenis makanan apa yang Anda konsumsi? Jika Anda sering kali makan, khususnya mengonsumsi makanan manis saat tidak merasa lapar, hal ini bisa jadi pertanda bahwa Anda kecanduan gula.
Berdasarkan penelitian, orang-orang yang mengonsumsi gula dalam volume yang besar cenderung kurang mengonsumsi makanan bernutrisi sehat. Akhirnya, tubuh tidak mendapatkan nutrisi yang dibutuhkan. Ketika tubuh kekurangan nutrisi, biasanya kita akan ngidam makanan asin.
Lisa Richards, seorang nutrisionist, mengatakan bahwa keinginan untuk makan makanan gurih dan asin merupakan salah satu tanda dari tubuh agar Anda mengurangi asupan gula dan meningkatkan asupan nutrisi sehat.
Saat Anda ingin mulai mengurangi konsumsi gula, maka bisa jadi Anda akan merasakan gejala “putus obat”. Sama seperti kecanduan zat pada umumnya, Anda mungkin akan merasakan pusing, kelelahan, keinginan kuat untuk mengonsumsi gula, nyeri otot, mual, bahkan insomnia. Oleh karena itu, Anda disarankan mengurangi konsumsi gula sedikit demi sedikit tiap harinya agar tubuh bisa beradaptasi.
Sebagian orang merokok ketika merasa stress, sebagian lagi mengandalkan makanan untuk membuat diri merasa lebih baik. Seseorang yang bergantung pada makanan manis untuk mengatasi stress, menenangkan diri, dan mengatasi isu psikologis lainnya bisa disebut sebagai pecandu gula.

Hi, Sahabat MyProtection!
Tentunya paling senang kalau sudah mendengar kata gajian!
Namun sebelum kamu menghabiskan uang untuk belanja dan checkout keranjang di e-Commerce langgananmu, jangan melupakan 3 prioritas utama ini ketika mengelola keuangan pasca gajian:
Penting bagi kamu untuk melunasi cicilan atau utang jika ada seperti cicilan rumah dan mobil. Pasalnya, semakin lama ditunda, bunga pinjaman atau utang bisa jadi semakin besar. Pastikan juga kamu menyisihkan uang terlebih dahulu untuk membeli kebutuhan pokok seperti listrik, air, biaya sekolah anak, dan makanan.
Saat ini, menabung dan mulai berinvestasi menjadi salah satu prioritas utama bagi kita semua. Baik untuk kamu yang masih lajang ataupun sudah berkeluarga. Menghadapi situasi tak pasti, kamu wajib menyiapkan tabungan atau dana darurat minimal 10% - 20% dari pendapatanmu. Selain menabung, kamu juga bisa belajar berinvestasi walaupun nilainya kecil. Baik investasi saham, reksadana, dan investasi kesehatan dengan memiliki asuransi kesehatan dan harta benda!
Sahabat MyProtection, tentunya kita berharap selalu diberikan kesehatan baik secara fisik, mental, dan materi. Namun, di luar sana masih ada banyak orang yang tidak seberuntung kamu saat ini. Jangan lupa untuk berbagi dan membantu sesama. Berbagi tak melulu bicara soal uang. Berbagi ilmu dan pengalaman juga bisa! Khususnya di tengah pandemi COVID-19 ini, mari kita hadapi bersama dan saling bahu membahu menolong sesame.
Salam,
Sahabat MyProtection
