Does Sugar affect Children’s behaviour
(Refrred by International Fitness Therapist Neeraj Mehta)
Although some people believe sugar cause attention deficit disorder (ADD) or hyperactivity in children, results from many published studies have failed to provide any scientifically proven support for this . in situations where the investigator, the child and the parent were unaware of the composition of the test food or capsule, refined sugar showed no effect on cognitive performance nor did it cause or exacerbate ADD.
It is possible that a very small number of children may respond adversely to fluctuations in blood glucose levels caused by sugar. But if this is the case any carbohydrate including bread and potatoes, will also be incriminated.
On the whole there is more evidence that sugar might actually have a calming effect, it if has any effect at all glucose or sugar can reduce the distress associated with painful medical procedures in infants. In one study there was a reduction in crying and heart rate in infants subjected to heel pricks when they were given a sugar solution immediately prior to the procedures compared to children who were given just water.
