In 1996 a nationwide alarm system was introduced in the US to find missing children. Chances are higher to find children alive within 24 hours, so speed is crucial. An alert is spread immediately to all national media and electronic message boards on the highways. This has been successful and in total 33 children were found in time thanks to this system. Today the Dutch government installed the Amber Alert in the Netherlands. Although not all cases can be solved this way, it feels reassuring that a whole society will very quickly be aware of the details of a missing child and can help to return it safely.

Until I read the book “Ditch the sugar addiction” at the age of 28, I ate at least one pack of cookies and a bag of candy per day. When I did not have sugar in the house that would really drive me crazy and an hour without it in my mouth made me tremble and feel sick. But then I read this book and I stopped instantly eating licorice, biscuits and toffees. Every horrible disease, every form of cancer has sugar as basic cause. I bought a crate with 20 kilo apples and ate them all in 7 days. I was determined to change my life as a sugar junkie.

These days it is practically impossible to raise children without sugar. Every birthday party is poisonous, Halloween is a disaster, and you cannot go shopping with your kids without them pestering you for sweets. Sensible mothers have an extremely hard time trying to protect their children. But we cannot give up, we cannot give in. Sugar is a poison and we have to say stop! Later our children will thank us for it.
