Abstract

The association between sugar consumption and weight loss has been the subject of debate for decades. Many people struggle to maintain a healthy weight due to their excessive sugar intake, which is a major contributor to the obesity problem. This paper seeks to investigate the effect of sugar consumption on weight loss, discussing the various research methods employed and the subject matter covered. This paper examined the effects of various types of sugars, the timing of sugar consumption, and the function of sugar in a balanced diet through a review of the relevant literature. This research has the potential to provide dietary recommendations and interventions for individuals attempting to lose weight, to better inform individuals about the relationship between sugar consumption and weight loss, and to assist healthcare professionals in providing evidence-based recommendations to patients.
