My Topic:
Eating a lot of sugary foods is worse for children than for adults.

What I hope to learn from this source:
I want to know the case of advertisement for sugary foods targeting at children. 

Notes:
1. Marlene Schwartz, deputy director of the Rudd Center, said: "While cereal companies have made small improvements to the nutrition of their child-targeted cereals, these cereals are still far worse than the products they market to adults. They have 56% more sugar, half as much fiber, and 50% more sodium. I want to use this specialist's comment. It effectively shows that children are exposed to the sugary foods more than adults. Thus I can insist that eating sugary foods is worse for children than for adults because there are a lot of possibilities for children to get bad influence from sugar.

 2. According to health website GreenFacts, adopting healthy habits early on in life decreases the risk of serious health problems as you get older. Many medical conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease, are related to poor dietary habits and lack of exercise. Unhealthy eating habits contributes to high blood pressure, high triglyceride levels and high blood sugar. I think it is a good content to insist that forming a bad habit in an early age is dangerous.

Final Thoughts:

I want to use Marlene Schwartz's comment in my confirmation as an evidence that children are exposed to sugary foods more than the adults. I think his comment and the content from the greenfacts are reliable sources.
