Sometimes, just not all the time...

Should we eat less sugar? Maddy conducted some research during reading time today, and her answer is yes.

"We should stop eating so much sugar because it is bad food and rots parts of your body. If you eat too much sugar you can get heart disease and diabeties. Sugar can affect your attitude and make you hypo. Children should have no more than 4 tsp of sugar per day. That's about one muffin. Women should have no more than 7-8 tsp of sugar per day. Men should have no more than 9-10 tsp per day. 

You should only have sugar on special occasions like Halloween and birthday parties. If you have a party, tell your caregiver to put some healthy snack on the table. Even on hot, hot days, not all the time you can have an icecream or iceblock. 

To stop your problems like heart disease and diabeties, you can go on a diet and do workouts. You see that you lose quite a lot of kilos. Remember, you can eat some sugar sometimes, just not all the time.
