    17, 2020 // -- In a recent study published in the international journal The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, scientists from institutions such as the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California found that sucrose drinks may cause lower levels of appetite-regulating hormones in young people's bodies compared to glucose drinks.
    Excessive sugar intake is a major risk factor for obesity, and sucrose is made up of the same amount of glucose and fructose, which are often added to processed foods such as sodas, sweets, grains and canned foods, while glucose is found in foods such as honey and dried fruit. Kathleen Page,
    M.D., said the study found that when young people consumed drinks containing sucrose, they produced lower levels of appetite-regulating hormones in their bodies compared to those who consumed glucose drinks, the main sugars circulating in the body's blood.

    findings suggest that it is important to consider how individual body characteristics affect the response mechanisms to different types of sugars and other nutrients in the food supply.
    the study, the researchers included 69 young people between the ages of 18 and 35 who were involved in two studies that included drinks containing glucose or sucrose.
    researchers found that when participants ate drinks containing sucrose, they produced low levels of hunger-suppressing hormones in their bodies compared to drinks containing the same amount of glucose.
    also noted that multiple individual body characteristics, including weight and gender, may also affect the body's hormone response levels to different sugars.
