“I have come to terms with it, because I have tried many things, even hypnotism, and it doesn’t work,” the ‘Griselda’ star confessed. She added that she tries to have “a balanced diet”. “I try to eat healthy so that I can eat sweets.”
Sofia Vergara looks like a goddess on screen, perfectly blending into the character that she plays. But, off screen, she is like a regular person with vices and unhealthy indulgences. The actor recently admitted in an interview with People magazine that she is addicted to sweets and sugar. “Well, I have an addiction to sweets, to sugar,” the 51-year-old shared with the publication, adding: “And, I have come to terms with it, because I have tried many things, even hypnotism, and it doesn’t work.” In the interview, the ‘Griselda’ star also confessed that she tries to have “a balanced diet when I can, or I don’t eat hamburger, pizza, fattening things”. “I try to eat healthy so that I can eat sweets.”
Sugar Addiction
According to addictioncenter.com, emotional or psychological dependence on sugary foods and drinks — also known as sugar addiction — is a ‘very real cause for concern’ among health officials in the US. Processed foods and refined grains, for instance, create additional sugar in the body once the body metabolises the food. And while sugar in moderation is not harmful, one must not consume too much of it, because it can dangerously harm the health.
