**Warning Signs of Excessive Sugar Consumption**

Consuming too much sugar can harm your health. Here are five signs that might indicate you’re overdoing it:

1. **Craving Sugar and Carbs**: Constantly wanting sugary or starchy foods may signal a sugar addiction. A detox could help reduce this craving.

2. **Lack of Energy**: If you feel tired all the time, even after a good sleep, it could be due to excessive sugar. While sugar gives quick energy, it often leads to fatigue later.

3. **Skin and Foot Problems**: Too much sugar can cause skin issues like acne, eczema, or rosacea. Dr. S. Green notes that it may also lead to foot pain, such as Plantar fasciitis. Reducing sugar could help ease these conditions.

4. **Weight Gain**: Sugar lacks essential nutrients like protein and fiber, leading to weight gain and insulin resistance when consumed in excess.

5. **Frequent Illness**: If you’re often sick with colds or the flu, sugar might be to blame. “Too much sugar weakens the immune system,” making it harder for your body to fight infections.

By recognizing these signs, you can make healthier choices and cut down on sugar.
