While these ideas about sugar and energy may seem logical , science tells us something different. Many studies tested whether people experience a sugar high after eating or drinking something that contains sugar. These studies show that having a sugar high is just a myth.
One study also looked at the behavior of parents. One group of parents was told their children drank something that contains sugar. Another group of parents was told their children drank something without sugar. In fact, all of the children had the same drink, which had no sugar. Parents who believed their children had drunk the sweet drink said their children were more hyper than usual. It shows that parents believe sugar makes their children hyper, despite the fact that it doesn’t actually affect their behavior.
