Hey guys I want to give you a quick tip on how to get kids off of sugar. An average child

0:06.4

consumes 66 pounds of added sugar every single year. That's added sugar. That's not even talking

0:14.6

about the the breads, the pasta, the cereal, the crackers, they you know the hidden sugars

0:19.6

that people don't realize. This is added sugar. You know you have sweetened milk, sweetened chocolate

0:24.4

milk, sweetened tea, fruit juices, sodas, sport drinks, vitamin drinks. It's in so many things. Not

0:32.1

to mention ketchup, sauces, breaded meats, chicken fingers, you name it. Okay so here's the goal.

0:39.2

We want to take the child from burning sugar to burning fat. This is going to improve the mood,

0:45.6

the cognitive function, the ability to learn. It's going to stable as the blood sugars.

0:50.5

It's going to do a lot. So this is going to be really important. And the problem is it's kind

1:29.0

is to substitute the sugar with something almost identical. And that's going to be like the keto

1:35.2

friendly cookies. The keto friendly pies in the sugar-free chocolate. And the keto bombs, which are

1:42.9

basically these cookies made out of fat. If you provide those foods as a dessert and not allow the

1:50.9

child to have like starches, like french fries, then you're going to finally make the transition.

1:56.8

It's going to take like two to three days of getting the child off sugar

2:02.0

to the point where they're doing really, really well. You might even want to make a cookie with

2:05.4

nutritional yeast to get that nutritional yeast in their body. But you're just going to use things
