Question:
Why is it that sugar has not been categorized as a drug even though it has an impact on the mental health?
Why is it that sugar is freely available to a greater majority of people, and if it makes most children are hyper active why is it that there is not public education on sugar and link to openly available drugs?
Answers:
Sugar does not have an impact on mental health, contrary to what you claim. Sucrose is found in nearly all foods in varying levels, and is an essential part of the human diet.
The problems we are seeing with kids who get hyperactive with sugar is that food manufacturers are tending to lace excess amounts of sugar into foods because 'it tastes good' and kids LOVE sugar.
FYI, the human body does not differentiate on varying forms of sucrose. Sugar itself is simply MOSTLY sucrose.
