Sugar Consumption Linked to Back Pain, Says Chiropractor

Eating too much sugar might make your back hurt more.

A doctor named Dr. Winternheimer says sugar can lead to weight gain, which puts extra pressure on your back.

Also, sugar can cause your body to have long-term swelling, which can increase pain.

Eating too much sugar can also lead to diabetes, which can harm nerves and also cause back pain.

So, if you have back pain, it may be a good idea to cut back on sugary foods and drinks.
