Sweets called unlikely cause of children s sour behaviour Bydo Kirkman Scripps Howard news service researchers have debunked a Long held belief that sugar and artificial Sweet Eners cause behaviour and learning prob lems in Young children. Instead there seems to be a Chance that sugar might Calm them a bit. The news that will Gladden Candy Mak ers was announced wednesday by a group of medical investigators headed by or. Mark Wolraich a paediatrician and director of child development at Vander bilt University in Nashville Tenn. Wolraich said a nine week study on 48 children showed sugar and the artificial sweetener aspartame Don t cause hyperactivity aggression and mood changes. They also Don t affect learning memory or physical skills he said. The study published in the new eng land journal of Medicine was conducted Between 1989 and 1991 at the University of Iowa in Iowa City and the results were Analysed at Vanderbilt. We can t say that no children Are affected by sugar and sweeteners but there seems to be Little likelihood he said. The carefully crafted test gave slightly higher than Normal amounts of sugar aspartame and saccharin to 25 preschoolers aged 3 to 5, and 23 schoolchildren aged 6 to 8 whose parents believed they were affected by  All of the children received fruit Cere als pudding Yogurt cookies fruit juice fruit toppings and soft drinks laced with sugar for one week the same foods con Taining aspartame for a week and the same diet sweetened by saccharin for a week. The children s behaviour and learning ability were monitored by their parents teachers and the researchers. None of the children showed any and verse effects Wolraich reported and sugar seemed to have a slight calming effect. The suspicion that sugar and artificial sweeteners cause behavioural and learning problems surfaced in the 1950s, Wolraich said mostly among parents with difficult to handle children. The problems were supposed to be particularly widespread in preschoolers and children aged 6 to 8. Parental suspicion about sugar and sweeteners became widespread in the 1970s, and Many parents prohibited their children from eating Candy and other sweetened foods. Studies conducted Dur ing the 80s did t prove or disprove the theory. This is the most prolonged study on the subject Wolraich said.

It is not a shortcoming said it. Col. Patrick Mullaney a spokesman for the air Force. Instead Mullaney said the contract reflects recent technological advances. He would t elaborate. Aerospace officials said methods to control contrails Are a military secret. Critics have questioned the b-2 s ability to Fly undetected by enemy Jet fighters or Missie Crews. The Pentagon has repeatedly asserted that there is no known radar or infrared technology that can pinpoint the bomber s location. The first operational b-2 was delivered in december 12 years after development of the plane began. Mullaney said the new anti Contrail system will be ready for the last two b-2 bombers off the production line in 1997. The other 18 bombers will be modified later he said.
