Debunking the Myth: Does Sugar Really Cause Hyperactivity in Kids?

Is sugar really to blame for hyperactive kids? While excessive sugar consumption can have negative effects on brain function, current scientific evidence does not support the notion that sugar directly causes hyperactivity in children. The myth of sugar-induced hyperactivity can be traced back to studies from the 1970s and 1980s, but the link between sugar and hyperactivity remains inconclusive. Parents should focus on providing nutritious meals and snacks for their children to support their overall health and well-being.
