Kids and refined carbohydrates
When it comes to nourishing our kids, we must fuel their growing bodies properly. Refined carbs like cake, cereals, cereal bars, pastries, cookies and chips may taste terrific in the moment, but provide empty calories and minimal nutritional values.

Excess calories but few nutrients results in overeating without feeling full. Extra weight can start appearing at younger ages, setting them up for health and psychological issues down the line.
