Excess sugar in pregnancy may impact child's mental health

A recent study indicates that excessive sugar consumption during pregnancy may negatively impact children's mental health later on, increasing the risk of disorders such as depression and anxiety. The study showed that children born before 1953, when sugar restrictions were in place, were up to 25% less likely to develop these disorders in adulthood. It is believed that reducing sugar intake during the first thousand days of a child's life, from pregnancy through the first two years after birth, helps support brain development and long-term mental health. Experts recommend updating health guidelines for pregnant women to reduce sugar intake and promote a balanced diet.
