Apparently, the rest of this sentence is going to be complete nonsense.

...not just that sentence, every single line of that post is glorious nonsense.

Looks like you've never noticed what a bowl of smarties will do to a kid's party. Or ever received your children back from a weekend at Grandma's where they've been force-fed ice creams and biscuits for 2 days.

Well,
looks like you've not noticed either:
www.bmj.com/content/337/bmj.a2769.full

The relevant bit:
"At least 12 double blind randomised controlled trials have examined how children react to diets containing different levels of sugar. None of these studies, not even studies looking specifically at children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, could detect any differences in behaviour between the children who had sugar and those who did not. This includes sugar from sweets, chocolate, and natural sources. Even in studies of those who were considered “sensitive” to sugar, children did not behave differently after eating sugar full or sugar-free diets."

Is this the BMJ?
No, it's 'conspiricy theories' so that's just the kind of thing they WOULD say.

PS bollocks to the BMJ. Parents know from experience.

Oh my God.
We're through the looking glass, people!

Oh, and don't say bollocks to the BMJ because if it wasn't for scientific method and experimentation and reason, we'd be drinking Radium Water from lead jugs before dying of Smallpox once we reach twenty-five.

Glucose syrup (corn syrup) tends to be used in cheap mass-market sweets anyway,
rather than refined sugar beet.

Expressing opinions without permission or prior education is textbook behaviour for reactionaries.
You should be more tolerant of other people's views.

From MGTs 'bollocks' linky above:
"While preparing his epochal volume, A History of Nutrition, published in 1957, Professor E. V. McCollum (Johns Hopkins university), sometimes called America's foremost nutritionist and certainly a pioneer in the field, reviewed approximately 200,000 published scientific papers, recording experiments with food, their properties, their utilization and their effects on animals and men. The material covered the period from the mid-18th century to 1940. From this great repository of scientific inquiry, McCollum selected those experiments which he regarded as significant "to relate the story of progress in discovering human error in this segment of science [of nutrition]".

Professor McCollum failed to record a single controlled scientific experiment with sugar between 1816 and 1940. unhappily, we must remind ourselves that scientists today, and always, accomplish little without a sponsor."

Yeah
Because scientists never destroy orthodoxy and progress human knowledge do they. It's not as if such behaviour would be rewarded with a rich prize, fame and fortune is it.

My son is one of those children who you're trying to say goes mental on sugar.
It's bollocks. It's not sugar. It's really not. From what I can see, it's probably food additives and things like caffeine (present in a lot of fizzy drinks), and certain food colourings. He'll go mental on orange cordial, but he'll go just as mental on sugar-free orange cordial or diet coke. If you don't use the sugar you consume, you don't have bursts of manic energy, you get fucking fat.

Spot on..
it's the artificial colourings, Sunset Yellow and the vicious blue one that was banned for a while in scandinavia are the worst. I wasn't allowed food colouring at all until I turned 18 and moved out from my parents' because it turned me into destructo-spasmo-child of doom and then slammed me with a hangover worse than micro-brew hangover.

It's crisps that worry me,
one time I was in LiDL and there was this kid, must have been about 5, just bouncing off the walls, knocking stuff over, just generally being loopy (which went completely unchecked by his dad, who didn't seem to know what to do).

"Too many crisps" I thought to myself.

After going through the checkout I saw the kid, placated at last, hugging a huge multipack bag of cheap crisps.

And cheap LiDL crisps are NASTY. They're about 90% MSG. A couple of friends and I did a load of them one night and we all went a bit funny.
( Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sat 3 Dec 2011, 18:48, closed)

No, I've never noticed my kids behavior change after eating sweets. I've seen kids go fucking nuts with excitment at parties, with or without smarties. I know the recieved opinion is people are supposed to spaz out on sugar, never seen it in real life.
( Ring Of Fire A petty, drooling belming butthurt retard., Sat 3 Dec 2011, 19:04, closed)

I know a 13-year-old who does,
but I think she does it on purpose and uses the sugar as an excuse.
