Sugar affects your heart rate by making increase. when you eat the food something called metabolism breaks down the food and turn it into energy. because of all this energy, it makes your heart go up to get rid of some of the energy.

there is no such thing as a sugar rush. someone decided that they would eat a lot of sugar and in the process had a wave of energy to the brain that they assumed was from the sugar. the suger they had eaten had no contrabution to this but the person decided to tell people about this, thus creating the "sugar rush" idea

Talk to any Endocrinologist or other medical person and they will tell yes sugar does raise blood sugar. But so do other high glycemic foods, even some fruits. Other foods include white pasta, white rice , watermelon and bananas. Go online to check the glycemic index of foods and you will be fine if you mainly stick to those on the lower side of the index. We will all cheat but that should not be every day.

BUT it is NOT "SUGAR" that causes Diabetes. Yes, it can be very confusing because people use the term "blood sugar" when talking about getting a reading. "Sugar" though is actually glucose-- and many types of other "sugars", like fructose and others ending in "-tose" are "sugars". Yet, it is also NOT glucose that causes diabetes! Confused yet?

The pancreas excretes insulin to regulate glucose (from everything we eat). Normally, insulin circulates in the bloodstream and "picks up" glucose molecules, and helps get the glucose into the cells. Insulin acts as baggage handlers and door men, carrying the glucose to the cell, holding the door open, and ushering the glucose through the cell membrane. This works really well--as long as the pancreas keeps producing insulin.

In a person with diabetes, the pancreas has become sluggish or damaged. It does not produce enough insulin. There are not enough "baggage handlers"-- they've gone on strike! The longer they are on strike, the more baggage (glucose) collects in the bloodstream. When too much glucose is in the bloodstream, the liver converts the glucose into glycogen and moves it into fat cells-- this is why diabetics are often overweight.

Because the pancreas is not working properly, the person needs external insulin products, either an oral medication or injections. This exogenous insulin (made outside of the body) are like "scab workers" during a strike--they do the work of endogenous insulin. But sometimes the workers (exogenous insulin) all show up at once; or not enough show up; or the person eats more food exchanges than they are allowed; or some problem happens-- e.g. exogenous insulin is not as easy to regulate as the natural insulin the pancreas should produce.

Eating too much sugar can lead to weight gain over time. Sugary foods are high in calories, but often have few other nutrients, and can lead to a quick energy rush followed by a slump afterwards. This may cause a person to feel sluggish and low in energy and can lead to cravings for more sugary foods, so that you eat too much and put on weight.

Thus, people with diabetes are often struggling with weight gain and trying to find the right balance between foods eaten and amount of insulin (exogenous insulin) they need. The problem is NOT about table sugar, and NOT about sugary foods. ALL foods contain some form of "sugars", e.g. glucose or a "-tose" that is converted to glucose.

Answer: Talk to any doctor and they will tell you type 2 diabetes is a "LIFESTYLE" disease. If you change the way you eat, reducing a lot of white foods in your diet and increasing your activity level, you make good changes.

Sugar does raise your blood pressure and so does carbs, because when the carbs are in your stomach they turn to sugar, so if you eat a lot of sugar and carbs there's a lot of sugar in your body. And a lot of sugar in your body can spike your blood pressure and also attack your nerves and you can end up having a anxiety attack, because of the sugar. Sometimes, an anxiety attack can lead to a heart attack within a mater of seconds, but the good thing is it all depends on how much you take in, because your body can't control or process all of that sugar and carbs, so your body might malfunction and lead to paralyzing your muscles or death. So, eat more vegetables, fruits and hummus kids!! hehehe... I know, I sorry I gonna go know.....(closes door embarrassed).

Yes, sugar does affect your heart rate because the sugar goes through your veins and into your blood, which affects your heart because blood keeps your heart going.
