CAMBRIDGE, MA – A new study out of the Harvard School of
Nutrition shows that children who eat bags of Halloween candy
have higher IQs. The comprehensive study took place over the
last forty years. A world renowned nutritional expert, Dr. Rosa
Blanton of the Oxford University, worked closely with the
Harvard scientists who studied candy and its effects on
children. Generally, children that eat a lot of candy tend to do
poorly on standardized tests, but children that eat Halloween
candy tend to overperform (but a wide margin) on standardized
tests and those children that ate large quantities of Halloween
candy year after year, had the highest IQs of all children
evaluated in the study. “We were not surprised that eating too
much sugary candies had an adverse effect on children, but we
were shocked to see the positive benefits of Halloween candy,”
said Dr. Blanton. These candies – in particular – raised the IQ
of children in the study by as much as 30 points. - Resee’s
