Candy can be safe to eat in moderation. Eating too much candy, however, can lead to an increased risk of tooth decay and cavities due to the high sugar content found in many types of candy. Additionally, some candies may contain allergens such as nuts or dairy that could cause adverse reactions for those with allergies or intolerances. It is important to read labels carefully before consuming any type of food product including candy so you are aware of potential ingredients that could trigger a reaction. Lastly, it is best practice not only for children but adults alike not exceed recommended daily intake levels when indulging on sweet treats like candy!
