Restricting added sugar for mom from conception to birth + the first 2 years of life in the child lowered their LIFETIME risk of diabetes by 35%, hypertension by 20% and obesity by 30%! 

We know as moms we are always doing the best we can and trying to keep our kids as safe and healthy as possible, and this presents an enormous opportunity to ✨improve metabolic dysfunction in our kids✨

🚨The guidelines recommend zero added sugar in kids under 2 but this is far from where our society is! 

Added sugar accounts for 7.7% of total daily calories in toddlers. This should not be normalized! 

❤️I truly understand it can feel like you’re swimming upstream in social situations, with family or even in your own relationship - and the goal is to do the best that you can. Our kids deserve it! 

Thank you to foundmyfitness for highlighting the significance of this study!
