Yes but I believe sugar substitutes are worse. I’ve looked into this an awful lot as I have a child with ADHD and I wouldn’t touch diet/reduced sugar anything ever! No diet drinks in this house  |

"If that would be truth I would be climbing walls, having about 10 coffee's a day 4 sugers each "
Yes but you’re special 
Give me a slice of chocolate cake and I’m happy. Give me the whole cake and I’m climbing the walls. |

It's a well known fact that aspartame is actually worse than sugar with greater potential side effects. Why its commercialisation is still permitted boggles the mind  |

It’s also scary to see how many people and restaurants have switched to diet drinks... |

Well suger is sucrose (disaccharide) which is easier to digest and burn by human body, compare that with wheat or rice containing starch (polimeric carbohydrate)
It would suggest its better to eat suger instead of bread.

Generally, the amount of sugars one consumes in their hot drink can act as a barometer of their intelligence / social standing / demographic.
It may explain why so many Jeremy Kyle Show guests had very little teeth... |

I thought that was due to bashing each other about rather than talking things though? |

Not solely his idea I’m sure. I just don’t like him and how he promotes reduced sugar everything. |

Oh, here we go again...
Next it'll be the obligatory 'alcohol is the most dangerous form of drug' argument - yawn! |

Once upon a time sugar was just bad for your teeth. Now it's blamed for a whole host of medical and social issues. It seems to me the 'go to' response to avoid delving too deeply into what really might be their cause. |

ADHD - if that's the type of issue you're referring to Shag, as it can contain elements of hyperactivity? (depending on the presentation of ADHD that someone has), isn't sugar related.
Our diets do influence our health, wellbeing and behaviour, to some extent. There were thoughts some time ago that ADHD was linked to sugar but the vast amount of research that we now have shows that, whilst it's a complex condition, potentially with multiple causes, one of the greatest reliable influences is genetic and not sugar.
Parents often don't manage their childrens' behaviour that well and there's likely been increases to the amount of public behaviour where respect for others is diminished, whilst people believe in their supreme need for personal gratification of whatever, as their sole focus of importance. Sod whoever is around and who may have experience people who affect them. |

"Shag, as someone who lives on Haribo which if you’re consuming the Tangfastics are particularly riddled with sugar, let’s ask you - how hyperactive are you?"
I dont have those. I have the golden haribo bag and no I dont get hyperactive as I dont eat many of them.

To a degree, yes. But e numbers are probably worse, and e numbers are probably found in sweets and sugary drinks more than any other type of food. I know someone who used to eat a lot of sweet stuff, but it was only red sweets that set her off, and she would be bouncing off the walls after eating something containing this red e-colouring. It was a lot to deal with |
