Remember how you felt the last time you ate a lot of sugary foods?
You probably got a quick burst of energy, and then it let you down, way
down. Maybe you felt “hung over” later with a headache. Maybe it upset
your stomach? Or did you get a toothache?
Or are you so used to eating a lot of sugar that you no longer feel the
negative side effects?
Think of these things the next time you’re about to choose to eat
candy, cakes, cookies, ice cream, soda, syrup, etc.

Remember what it feels like after the sugar high wears off.
