Sugar actually accelerates aging. Don't you ever ask yourself why does old people who stay at the country/village region, eating natural foods and less sugar, look healthier and stronger than their age mate who are in the city. Although, there are many factors that causes that, but sugar is one of them. Sugar tends to affect our body composition, by affecting some proteins in our body which causes our skin to lose elasticity and therefore causes premature aging.
