Above her are the words, \u201cAre you making your children pay for your weight problem?\u201d To her right are the words, \u201cIf you\u2019re trying to lose weight by stocking the house with sugarless soft drinks, remember one thing. Your children will drink them too. Their thirst craves anything that\u2019s cold and wet. But their bodies need much more. Energy. And that they\u2019ll never get from an artificial sweetener. Now let\u2019s get back to you, and that diet of yours. Unless you make a career out of drinking soft drinks, saving calories with synthetic pops is a little like trying to reduce by getting a haircut. Besides, you need sugar, too. Particularly when you\u2019re dieting. Sugar in a soft drink does two things for you: 1) it satisfies those between-meal hunger pangs, and 2) it gives you the va-voom you need for all those exercises.\u201d Below them are the words, \u201cSugar quenches fatigue. \u2026 18 calories per teaspoon \u2014 and it\u2019s all energy.\u201d next to an image of a sugar bowl, full of sugar, with a spoon in it and the lid of the bowl sitting to the left. Below that is a black-framed box with this text: \u201cNote to Mothers: Exhaustion may be dangerous \u2014 especially to children who haven\u2019t learned to avoid it by pacing themselves. Exhaustion opens the door a little wider to the bugs and ailments that are always lying in wait. Sugar puts back energy fast \u2014 offsets exhaustion. Synthetic sweeteners put back nothing. Energy is the first requirement of life.
