Here is an article about how our brains process sugar. Check it our: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/10-similarities-between-junk-foods-and-drugs "Numerous studies have shown this to be true. Junk foods and sugar flood the reward system with dopamine, particularly a brain area called the Nucleus accumbens, which is strongly implicated in addiction (7Trusted Source).
Sugar also has some effects on opioid pathways within the brain, the same system manipulated by drugs like heroin and morphine (8Trusted Source, 9Trusted Source, 10Trusted Source).
This is why highly processed, sugar-laden foods can make (some) people lose control over their consumption. They hijack the same brain pathways as drugs of abuse.
BOTTOM LINE:
Studies have shown that sugar and junk foods flood the reward system in the brain with dopamine, stimulating the same areas as drugs of abuse like cocaine."
