At least we won't be the ones injecting our children with insulin later on.

Obesity and sedentary lifestyle are the primary risk factors, excluding genetics. Not sugar. Sugar may contribute to obesity if you eat too much and don't exercise, but in and of itself, it is not a risk factor.

If she likes yogurt, maybe she'd like thick soups like potato, potato and broccoli, chili with a glob of sour cream or plain greek yogurt as enticement, cold soups...

Does she eat anything else? She sounds like she'd go for drinks like pediasure, and maybe if you give her the strawberry she could discover she likes berries.

You can buy pouches you can fill yourself to make her purees that are yogurt-based with vegetables.

Yogurt-covered raisins may appeal to her, and you could slowly mix in peanuts and other trail mix items.

Good luck.

Where did I say that sugar causes diabetes, sweetie?

I wonder if OP is a troll.

If this just occurred after the baby, perhaps he is having an issue about wanting to be a baby too. Indulge for a few days until he gets sick of it.

What a load of bull. You're the reason why healthcare is getting out of control. OP doesn't need a speech therapist for goodness sake. The kid is a picky 5 year old as are thousands of other kids. Give her what she'll eat and make sure she takes a vitamin daily. Her palette will expand in time and, guess what, she'll live. We should make all of you helicopter parents who rush to medicine for everything pay for your bills out of pocket. That'll make you wake up and quit wasting taxpayer money.

Let see I can believe you or the NY Times....

It was repeated so often it was accepted as true: the typical American consumed 95 to 100 pounds of sugar each year. Health experts said that consumption was surely contributing to a nationwide crisis of obesity.

Wow that's over a 1/4 pound a day.

If you think it's ok to give your kid juice and sugar all day long, you are a complete fool. Laugh at the sugar freaks as much as you need to, but I assure you that sugar is the likely cause of most of your child's behavioral issues as well as many health issues (now and later). Try cutting it out for a week. I bet it will improve your life. If you can't, enjoy!

Interesting. I think there is just so much sugar in everything. I am trying to lose wieght, but those sugar salt things kill me.

Ask the Diet Doctor: Cutting Back on Sugar
Q: I want to cut back on my sugar consumption. Should I go cold turkey or ease into it? Where do I begin?

A: I’m glad to hear that you are making efforts to cut down on your sugar consumption. Added sugar makes up 16 percent of the total calories in the average American diet—that’s 320 calories for someone on a 2,000-calorie plan! Removing this many calories can make a huge impact if you are trying to lose weight. For some people, cutting out added sugar is the only diet change they need to drop significant pounds.

But eliminating sugar is hard because it’s addictive. Some research shows that high intakes of the sweet stuff can mimic the effects of opiates. I’m not saying that your midafternoon cola fix is giving you the same high as popping oxycodone, but they both stimulate similar areas of the brain, leading to feelings of pleasure.

Just eat real food. Do not buy processed foods to the extent possible. For example, eat meat and vegetables or salad for dinner, not rice out of a box, etc.
