The Worst Foods For A Hyperactive Toddler Or Child
Teddy Grahams

These cute and cuddly looking bears are full of harmful chemical ingredients that your hyperactive toddler or child should not be consuming. They are laced with TBHQ, which is a known carcinogenic. It may also cause vomiting, nausea, anxiety, and a disturbance in mental abilities. Look for store-bought crackers containing four or fewer ingredients with no preservatives. An example is wheat crackers with whole wheat flour, sea salt, honey, and water. Many gluten-free options are available in store as well. Seed crackers are made with a combination of brown rice flour and seeds and are another great alternative. They are a healthier option for children, with less sugar, and just as tasty!
Lunch Meats

Many premade lunchboxes for children include bologna, turkey, smoked ham, and roast beef. Eating one slice per day may pose dangerous health risks. Processed meats are full of preservatives called nitrates. These preservatives are known to increase an individual's risk of developing cancer and heart disease. It is best to avoid all premade sandwich meats due to their high sodium content and preservatives. Parents can make a sandwich with a few pieces of last night's organic chicken or real meat. Top it with fresh avocado and cheese. Serve it on sprouted grain whole wheat bread for an added healthy touch.
