I wonder what the difference is when moms say, "Well, if you give kids candy before bed, "they'll never sleep," or, "The kids get all wound up on sugar." And why that's not affecting me like that. - No, if they ate enough sugar, they would get wound down. Sugar is even a mild anesthetic for a baby. Getting injections and such, dose of sucrose is demonstrably calming and actually stops the pain and it lowers adrenaline. So, it's actually not getting enough sugar that makes kids get hyperactive. The immediate effect of the sugar is quieting. - That's crazy.
