Children who eat sweets and chocolate every day are more likely to be violent as adults, according to new research. A study of almost 17,500 participants in the 1970 British Cohort Study found that 10-year-olds who ate confectionary daily were significantly more likely to have been convicted for violence at age 34 years.
