The sweetness obviously comes from the sugar used to make the candy and the reason people like candy so much is because of how sugar affects the brain.

It is no wonder that overeating and craving sweet foods is a problem facing our society.

Especially because excess sugar impairs our cognitive skills, memory, and our self-control.

Does this mean you should never have hard candy, chocolate bars, or some other confection ever again?

Only you can answer that, but before you do, keep reading through these candy quotes and see what other ways sugar affects your overall health.

Which of these candy quotes is your favorite?

Of course, there are many forms of sugar, and some of it is naturally found in whole foods, like fruit and vegetables.

And that sugar is good for you, which begs the question of how much of a person’s sugar consumption comes from candy.

According to the US Census Bureau, the average American consumes 22 pounds of candy each year.

To put this in a little perspective, a bag of fun-size Snickers is 10.59 ounces, so the average person buys and eats a little over 33 bags a year.

What do you think is candy a guilty treat and a wonderfully sweet way to break up your day?

Or is it a health crisis wrapped in a little fun-size wrapper?
