Nutritional Value of Halloween Candy

Posted by Dan Hammer //

Halloween is quickly approaching and treats are a part of this annual tradition. So I was wondering what isNutritional Value of Halloween Candy the nutritional value of Halloween Candy.

If you have kids, then you’re in the process of beginning to prepare their costumes. My children are grown up but they have kids. My grandson is going as Spider-Man. My granddaughter is going as Ariel. Most of their outfits are ready. And if the weather is good they’ll be spending a lot of time going from door to door collecting Halloween Candy.

Now unless you have a neighbor that is buying the large candy bars, almost all of the Halloween candy is packaged in “bite-sized” wrappers. And most likely the homes you’re stopping at aren’t giving you “Nutrition Fact Sheets” for the candy they’re dolling out.

I thought it would be kind of fun (yes I know it’s a geeky type of fun) to know the nutritional value of Halloween candy. This way you can control the amount of sugar you put into your kid’s system. Read More →

Learning how to properly use a Glycemic Index Chart can have several positive benefits for your overallGlycemic Index Chart health and wellness.  Unfortunately, most people have never heard of the Glycemic Index let alone know how to use the information found in the chart.  Before I explain this information let me share a real life story.

When I was growing up my favorite breakfast cereal was Rice Krispies.  I loved the taste and when you poured on the milk they made that neat “Snap, Crackle, Pop” sound.  But one thing I noticed, even as a child, was that within two hours or less I was hungry again.  As a kid I thought it was because of all the air holes in the cereal.  The Glycemic Index hadn’t been developed so there was no chart to tell me that Rice Krispies has an index value of 82.  This value makes it a high glycemic food, which causes your blood sugar to spike followed by a crash and extreme hunger.
