As a result of eating candies, people can develop a variety of health problems. First of all, there is the risk of acquiring Diabetes if an individual consumes an excessive amount of candies, since diabetes is caused by abnormally high blood sugar levels. In addition, eating a lot of candies can diminish dental health because cavities, or decaying areas in teeth, develop if there is an excess build up of plaque that forms in and around a tooth. Eating too many candies can also result in obesity, since unnecessary sugar is stored in the body as fat, thus the more candies you eat, the greater the build up of fat in the body. This fat build up can also lead to Heart disease because by consuming sugar, the insulin levels in the blood increase. Insulin stores fat and it can damage artery walls, thus there are more opportunities for fat to build up around the heart. Lastly, eating too much sugar slows down the activities of the white blood cells. As a result, it is more difficult for the body to fight off diseases.
