Have you ever wanted to stop eating something sweet but you couldn't? Can you eat a box of chocolate all by yourself?
Can you say "no" to sweets at parties? If you can't, then perhaps you're sugar addict (有瘾的人). Doctors say that people who often eat sweets can easily become addicted to sugar.
Sugar addiction is serious, because it can really damage your health and even cause (导致) death. Doctors say that we should eat healthy food, such as fruit and vegetables, and we shouldn't eat a lot of sugar or fast food. But sugar addicts are difficult to follow the advice. Well, here is some useful advice for sugar addicts:
★ Eat some fresh fruit when you really want something sweet to eat.
★ Cut down on sweet food slowly. Don't try to stop eating it all at once.
★ You have to tell your parents. They will help you give up (放弃) bad eating habits.
