TEN YEAR STUDY OF 800,000 CHILDREN IN NEW YORK PUBLIC SCHOOLS REVEALS THE ELIMINATION OF SUGAR AND JUNK FOODS DRAMATICALLY INCREASE GRADE SCORES AND REDUCE VIOLENCE.
New York City study on the effects of sugar on children Alexander Schauss wrote a book entitled “Diet, Crime And Other Negative Behavior Delinquency.” The book revealed a ten-year study by such research institutions as The Johns Hopkins University, U.C.L.A. and The Institute For Biosocial Research in Tacoma, Washington. The study demonstrated the devastating effects of white sugar (concentrated sweeteners) and junk foods on children in New York Public Schools. The children involved in the study were put on an all-natural foods diet. They took 90% of the sugar out of the children’s diet, took them off junk foods and put them on health foods. They ate breakfast and lunch at school. Their IQ’s increased to the highest levels of any school system in the history of the United States Public Schools. This junk-free diet also reduced the level of violence, rage, absenteeism and crime in the New York public school system.
You should read another book written by J.A. Rodale entitled “Natural Health, Sugar And The Criminal Mind, ” which further documents negative effects of sugar on the human body. By the way, Rodale is also the man who founded the popular journal called “Prevention Magazine.”
Windgard & Holliman wrote still another outstanding book on the negative behavior of children whose primary diet consists of sugar and refined carbohydrates. The book is entitled “Specific Health Standards For Pre-Adolescent Children of Free Races.”
“Nutritional Assessment Of Black Individuals," by S. Carn & D. Clark at UCLA also talks about this study of 800,000 children at The Johns Hopkins Hospital.
