Sugar Consumption, Inflammation and Injury Risk

October is often synonymous with indulging in sugary treats, from Halloween candy to seasonal desserts. While it may seem like a harmless indulgence, increased sugar consumption can have a significant impact on the body, especially when it comes to inflammation. Excessive sugar intake during this festive month can trigger a chain reaction in the body that leads to chronic inflammation, which, in turn, may increase the risk of injury.
