You may find the results surprising, but there is plenty of experimental evidence that sugar rushes, as popularly conceived, simply don’t occur in children.
Google ‘No such thing as a sugar rush’ to get a feel for how long this has been studied.
I can’t find anything to suggest that sugar pills were dropped as a placebo because of sugar’s effects.
- watwut 2y agoI recall reading that people recognize the taste of sugar as differ then typical taste of medicine, so they conclude they are in placebo group. So they guve them placebo people won't recognize as a placebo. Nothing to do with biological effect of sugar.
