Hello friends, I want to share with you how much candy affects our children.

Many times during the holidays, the consumption of sweets by children increases, and many of the sweets are present in children's meetings and parties, which we often ask ourselves are harmful to children. There are parents who protect their children from consuming all kinds of sweets, just as there are parents who allow only one sweet a day to be consumed, there are also parents who say that sweets give children energy.

¡Effect of sweets on children!

We have to analyze how much candy we give to our children, in their daily routine or in the week, since that influences their nutritional level in how to take care of their teeth and stomach.

Nutritional value:
The glucose contained in sweets is very helpful for brain neurons as well as energy, we must be careful because sweets should be moderate, because they can cause changes in your body like childhood obesity. Nutritionists recommend that children should not be given more than 25 or 30 grams of sugar. Sweets can cause more overweight problems than fried foods because they generate more fat reservoirs in the body.

Obesity for sweets.

The Teeth:The hard sugar in the mouth becomes an acid that after being consumed damages the teeth, in the consumption of sugar in children generates ontological problems is caries.

Stomach: Sweets are made from fat and a large amount of sugar, and also contain other elements such as colorants and preservatives. These unhealthy ingredients cause colic in children and may even cause vomiting and diarrhea.

How to avoid sweets at home!

We must replace soft drinks with water, and offer natural juices. This should be applied from very young children.

Replace desserts with cereal fruits.
Do not use sweets as rewards or prizes for children's behavior.

You can't mix a cake and soda in a snack.
