You know that feeling you get when grandpa surprises your two-year-old with a big ice cream? Of course, the little one is ecstatic, but youre secretly cursing under your breath because youre almost 100% sure that it means youre going to have a long night ahead of you. Yet, scientists seem to disagree with you and give grandpa the OK when it comes to the sugar-filled treat. Why? Because sugar doesnt lead to hyperactivity in children! According to a study done in 1994, sugar doesnt affect a childs behaviour. However, it does change the attitude of the child's parents. Parents (especially mothers) tend to watch their children more and scrutinize their behaviour after having a sugary treat. They noted that the children are suddenly hyperactive even if the child had had a placebo treat.
