In an interview with CARAS Brasil, nutritionist Cibele Spinelli comments on fitness muse Gracyanne Barbosa’s decision, revealed during BBB 25
Gracyanne Barbosa (41) made a revelation that left his cellmates in prison BBB 25 and the public is very curious: they haven’t eaten chocolate for 20 years. During a chat with the actress Vittoria Strada (28), while competing in the first Endurance Test of the TV Globo reality show, in the early hours of last Tuesday, the 14th, the fitness muse explained that her body has already adapted to the absence of sweets and that the only exception is the version flavored with whey protein. In an interview with CARAS Brazilthe nutritionist Cibele Spinelli comments on the decision of the singer’s ex-wife Beautiful (50). “Totally doable”he states.
According to the expert, Gracyanne’s decision not to consume sweets for more than 20 years reinforces something that science already confirms: sweets are not an essential nutrient for the body. “Our body does not need added sugars to function properly, as the glucose needed for vital functions is obtained through the metabolization of complex carbohydrates found in foods such as fruits, whole grains and vegetables,” inform.
“The consumption of sweets, especially processed ones, is often associated with a cycle of taste addiction. The more sweets we consume, the more we want to continue eating, as sugar activates reward areas in the brain. This habit can be changed with nutritional re-education, gradually reducing sugar consumption and allowing the palate to adapt to less sweet flavours”Cibele continues.
According to the doctor, Gracyanne demonstrates that this lifestyle change is possible and that, with consistency, the habit of consuming sweets can be completely replaced by healthier choices. “Furthermore, the absence of sugar in the diet contributes to numerous benefits, such as improving glycemic control, reducing the risk of metabolic diseases and reducing inflammatory processes,” point.
For Cibele it is important to underline that there is nothing wrong with not consuming sweets. “On the contrary, this choice represents a food freedom that promotes greater long-term health and well-being. It is a habit that can be built by anyone, with discipline and small, gradual changes”explains.
“The message is clear: sweets are not necessary, and it is entirely possible to live without them. This adaptation is a personal choice and proof that lifestyle can be shaped according to the health and quality of life goals of each”, concludes the doctor.
