For many kids, Halloween is all about collecting as much candy as possible. But parents may want to set some limits once the trick-or-treating is over…
“We really don’t see a lot of tampered items or problems from that. When I see a kid with a problem from candy, it’s almost entirely because they ate too much of it at once. So definitely figuring out some way to maybe pick a couple pieces and limit the intake can be good.”
Dr. James Miner with the University of Minnesota Medical School says a quick inspection of the haul and a plan for spreading out the treats can help make the post-Halloween sugar rush a little easier on everyone.
