Why Does Sugar Make You Feel Wired Then Crashed?

Imagine your body is a car. Sugar is like pouring extra fuel into the tank. When you eat candy or cookies, that sugar turns into energy super fast! You feel happy and ready to run around.

But there is a helper called insulin. It comes along to clean up the extra sugar. Sometimes it cleans up too much. Suddenly, your car has no fuel left. This is why you feel tired and grumpy after a sugar rush. It feels like your battery died quickly.

To stay happy longer, eat things that release energy slowly, like whole grains or fruits. They give you steady power instead of a big burst followed by a nap time.
