Many scientists believe our love of sugar may  (actual) be an addiction. When we eat or drink sugary foods, the sugar enters our blood and affects parts of our brain  make us feel good. Then the good feeling goes away,  (leave) us wanting more. All tasty foods do this, but sugar has a particularly strong effect. In this way,  is in fact an addictive drug, one that doctors recommend we all cut down on.

"It seems like every time I study  illness and trace a path to the first cause, I find my way back to sugar," says scientist Richard Johnson. One-third of adults worldwide have high blood pressure, and up  347 million have diabetes(糖尿病). Why?" Sugar, we believe, is one of the  (reason), if not the major one," says Johnson.

Our bodies  (design) to survive on very little sugar. Early humans often had very little food. In this way, we had energy stored for when there was no food.  today, most people have more than enough. So the very thing that once  (save) us may now be killing us.

    You may not have noticed it before, but many people often sit with a hunched (驼背的) back when they are in a difficult situation, such as trying hard {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (solve) a math problem. But there's a reason for this: this body position helps to reduce pressure.

     However, according to Erik Peper, a health professor at San Francisco State University, poor posture (姿势) may make our brains work not as well as they {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (normal) do.

    Peper and a team of researchers {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (study) 125 students' performance in a math test and their different postures. The team found that good posture—for example sitting up straight—could help people perform better {#blank#}4{#/blank#} bad posture when they feel stressed.

    Another professor Richard Harvey further explained in Science Daily that sitting with bad posture might make us feel more {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (comfort), but it actually increases our pressure levels.

    So the next time you have to take a test, try sitting upright and taking a deep {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (breathe). If Peper's study is correct, this small change may have {#blank#}7{#/blank#} great influence on you.

    There are many things {#blank#}8{#/blank#} lead to poor posture. The good news {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (be) that posture can be improved at any age by {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (make) just a few simple corrections in the way one stands, sits and moves.
