Does anyone have an article/link/book that talks about this topic specifically? We're looking to change the way snacks are done in our church kids' program (director is on board with this but needs data for talking with the other leaders):

One, simple article that speaks to the harm that a high sugar/carb diet and focus on food as time filler has on children. I want to have something that I can use to talk about why we need to get away from giving snacks on Sunday morning and that when we do have a celebration, why we will do something healthy instead. I hope there is something out there, a simple teaching tool.

I thought of it from the food allergy angle (how it's isolating for kids with allergies to not be able to participate with the food) but actual health stuff or 'classroom environment' stuff would be excellent too.
