    Eating sugar generally does not cause obesity. The fundamental cause of obesity is that the energy intake by the human body exceeds the energy consumption, resulting in the conversion of excess energy into fat and accumulation in the body. Some parents are afraid that their children will gain weight and dare not let them eat more sugar. In fact, this worry is not necessary, as long as the children maintain an appropriate amount of exercise. On the contrary, eating sugar is still very beneficial to the health of children.
