chocolate syrup was Re: Increased hyperactivity with (sugar??)

I'd buy coco powder--and make the syrup yourself--keep it refrigerated.  Should

take about ten minutes--you'll get the consistency right after a few batches but

he won't like it as much--people who consume that stuff regularly are addicted

to it-that's one of the problems--it's just so bad all around--GM corn to boot

as well--just the worst thing you can do to any living thing.

See if you can make a home made chocolate syrup with pure cane sugar and coco

powder and water--that's how we did it before the HFCS--took over the world and

before everything was processed--and people drank refreshing home made syrups

from fruits and club soda--before Coke and Pepsi and other sodas took over the

world.  So just think natural and avoid HFCS as the plague--it is really that

bad for you---I have some articles that describe it--but you can google and find

them---and it's in just about everything processed-because we like a LOT of food

and cheap--we're so spoiled in America---and we pay for it. well, now so does

the rest of the world because healthy alternatives are 10 times more expensive

and considered gourmet...  Even in places like Africa healthy produce and home

made food has been replaced by isles and isles of processed refined carb and

HFCS filled junk--and it's cheaper than real food--so people there have even

less of a choice--- 

Really--get your Dh off that stuff--and read labels whenever you can---think

home made alternatives--think organic--organic egg nog  which we only get once a

year for example has sugar, the non organic half the price-has HFCS--and so on

take care,

so my husband is addicted to hershey's chocolate syrup which isn't even

chocolate.  Do you or anyone know of a real chocolate syrup to make choco milk

with?  everything is choco flavor

> Please parents--skip anything with High Fructose Corn Syrup--buy organic suits

if you must----buy the stuff without the HFCS--it is the worst thing --worst

ingredient for your child or for anybody--along with the chemicals like MSG and

artificial coloring and all that-- Think natural--honey, pure cane sugar---maple

syrup--NOT Agave--it's processed the same as HFCS.

What's everyone's view on Agave? It comes in so many flavors including

chocolate. I used to use it for my boys when I had to " doctor " up the NV before

my kids got used to the taste (of no fat, sodium and only 2 grams of sugar per

scoop!) Probably what you could do is mix a bit of chocolate agave with the

type of syrup your husband is using now since he's " addicted " to it- and

gradually reduce the syrup he's used to and keep increasing the agave? I know

when it comes to husbands they can be waaaaaaaaaaaaaay tougher then kids to get

foods into that they don't like Liralen!

In a rush but here's some of the commercial sites on this

About agave
