Does sugar hurt hair? Probably very slightly.

One thing for sure, you are very likely to live longer if you take sugar out of your diet. This is a fact, high sugar content in the blood causes inflammation.

"One of the reasons inflammation occurs is from a rapid rise in blood sugar, which causes biochemical changes in the cell. Staying away from sugar and high-glycemic (simple) carbohydrates, which the body rapidly converts to sugar, is one of the best ways to decrease inflammation.

When blood sugar goes up rapidly, sugar can attach itself to collagen in a process called “glycosylation,” or the Browning Reaction, increasing inflammation" - copied from http://www.wethchange.com/how-to-reduce-inflammation-in-the-body-and-why-you-need-to-do-this/

The “complexity” of carbohydrates has very little to do with how fast blood sugar rises. To prove that, just look at the glycemic index of a baked potato, which is higher than sucrose (table sugar)!! :slight_smile:

Eating healthy is undoubtedly good for a person as a whole, but I doubt that it’s going to have a noticeable effect on your hair.

I once read a book called sugar blues, after you read that you would think it gives you everything from heart disease cancer ulcers migraines, etc etc etc

I eat way too much sugar but at mid 40s look about 35 normal blood pressure no heart problems, etc hair looks better than it did 10 yrs ago
I think Bryan is right it is a bit overblown
