In this article Dr Mercola shares lots of insights relating to sugar that we should all be aware of and especially have the responsibility to know about as parents. He explains that it’s only very recently in human evolution that we’ve had ongoing access to so much sugar and that processed sugar of course has an even more potent impact on our chemistry and because of this … “people’s tongues were still not able to adapt to sweet treats.

This leads to addiction.
