Hence, we eat more and more sugar and become obese.<\/p>\n<p>In the healthy individual, the leptin level should be low, but, people who are obese have higher leptin levels. As we know that obesity is the mother of all diseases, we all should try to cut its risk factor eventually.<\/p>\n<p>So, keeping the sugar intake in moderation or adding the substitute of fructose in our diet is the best idea to prevent the sugar harms.
