It's easier to say how much sugar you need to eat to die. Yes, brothers, sugar is also a chemical that has a lethal dose. He was tested on rats. Something like 30 grams of sugar per kilogram of weight killed half of the animals.
Sugar pulls water in the stomach and intestines, is absorbed into the bloodstream and hits the liver.
The pancreas usually tolerates a lot of sugar. Glucose, of course, poisons the pancreas, but this is important for the long-term use of sweets by patients with diabetes mellitus.
So about the rats. From such a dose of sweets, they became lethargic, their bellies swelled. Braking, diarrhea, everything.
If the rats are unlucky that their hearts, liver, and kidneys were damaged during the first 10 hours. The case ended with convulsions and respiratory arrest.
If the rats were lucky, then for about a week, glucose raged in their blood like an avid diabetic. They were thirsty, a large amount of glucose was excreted with a large amount of urine, but then the animals returned to normal.
Did you think that sugar will only cause diabetes? No. This is really poison.
Personally, I only came across people who were sick and sick from sweets. We will not touch diabetics. They have a separate story.
It looks like half a bucket of sugary soda can be poisoned.
How much sweets can you eat?
