Halloween is just around the corner, and with it comes a mountain of candy. Whether you’re raiding your kids’ trick-or-treat haul or picking at the office candy bowl, it’s easy to lose track and indulge a little too much. While enjoying some treats in moderation is perfectly fine, sugar-laden candy can lead to blood sugar spikes and crashes, excessive calorie intake, and increased cravings.

So how can you enjoy Halloween without the sugar overload? Enter Control by Mend—a smart tool to help you navigate candy season with more balance.

The Problem with Halloween Candy Overload

Halloween candy is typically high in sugar and low in nutrients, making it the perfect storm for a blood sugar rollercoaster. When you eat a lot of sugary candy, here’s what happens:

• Blood sugar spikes: Refined sugars in candy cause rapid spikes in blood glucose, which can lead to an energy crash shortly after.

• Increased cravings: After your blood sugar drops, you often crave more sugar to bring your energy back up, leading to a spooky cycle of overeating.

• Weight gain: Over time, indulging too much during the holidays can result in unwanted weight gain and make it harder to get back on track with healthier habits.

But don’t worry—there are ways to manage this while still enjoying some treats.
