🍭 Wellness Wednesday: Candy Control & Managing Sugar Rushes 🍬

Halloween may be behind us, but the candy cravings often stick around! While a little treat is fine, too much sugar can lead to energy crashes, mood swings, and tummy troubles — especially in kids.

Here are a few tips to help manage those post-candy sugar rushes:
✨ Set limits — Offer a few pieces at a time instead of free access to the candy stash.
🍎 Pair sweets with protein or fiber — Nuts, cheese, or fruit can help balance blood sugar levels.
🚰 Encourage hydration — Water helps the body process sugar and keeps kids feeling good.
🕒 Stick to a routine — Regular meals and snacks can reduce sugar cravings.

Remember, balance is key! A mindful approach helps children learn healthy habits without taking away the fun.

🦷🎃 Fun Fact Friday: Sweet Smiles After Halloween! 🍭

Did you know that it’s not the amount of candy, but how long sugar stays on teeth that matters most for dental health? 😁 The longer sugar hangs around, the more chances cavity-causing bacteria have to do their trick (not treat!).

Here are a few spooky-smart tips for keeping little smiles healthy:
🪥 Brush after treats — especially before bedtime!
💧 Drink plenty of water to wash away sticky sugars.
🍫 Choose chocolate over sticky candies — it rinses off teeth more easily.
⌛ Set “treat time” instead of all-day snacking to reduce sugar exposure.

Let your kids enjoy their candy fun — just help them care for their teeth afterward! For more healthy habits and pediatric wellness tips, visit 👉 www.pedsinbrevard.com
