But dentists and dieticians say you can do even reasonably healthy Halloween for little witches and demons without resorting to tactics dracul-onian, as no candy.

"This is a great adventure for them - let them, obviously have with a few caveats,"said Dr. Rhea Haugseth, dentist in Marietta, GA., who was the President of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry".

There are tricks to keep the pleasures of the Halloween without risk of cavities and additional books, such as the distribution of chocolate black instead of chewy candies or even corrupting children with a toy in exchange for their Halloween loot. Some studies have suggested that dark chocolate is good for the heart, and chewy candy stick to teeth.

Just Don't go overboard on the restrictions, said Cole Robbins, a Chicago 12 years and veteran of Halloween.

"Halloween is a day of the year where we kids type just and overload on candy", he said.

To prevent this type of pile, try giving children a healthy, filling meals before trick-or-treating, said Bethany Thayer, a spokesman for the American Dietetic Association working in the health system, Henry Ford in Detroit.

Contrary, take heart. Thayer also wait until the day of Halloween recommends buying candy, so no one is tempted to engage in advance.

"I know people who have to return to the store, because they completely traversed their candy" before Halloween, she said.

Haugseth suggests avoiding treats favouring the cavity as caramels that stick to the teeth or pacifiers that bathe the teeth in a long sweet bath.

Also, have the children to brush their teeth before sound helps reduce plaque and bacteria interact with the sugar to produce acid decomposition of teeth, said Haugseth. Children should also brush right after eating candy, said.

Ronni Litz Julien, a nutritionist in Miami whose patients include children in overweight and anti-obesity, said that another trick for parents is to ask the children not step to tap into their loot bags until they bring any home. This is for security, if parents can mix any suspicious candy with research, but it can also prevent the a "frenzy food."

It suggests that parents help to sort the loot, having children select their 10 favourite songs and give the rest. Offer the choice to eat all the 10 pieces at a time, or 10 days. That gives them a sense of control, without feeling felt, she said.

"You do not deprive them." "This is Halloween, by the love of God," she said.

The President Barack Obama joked this week on "Tonight Show" that he had warned his wife of health promotion that the White House could be encouraged if it gave fresh fruit Halloween and raisins instead of candy. During the Saturday festivities, the Sung will present to the White House M & Ms, cookies, and dried fruit as they have done over the past two years.

Dr. Janet Silverstein, pediatrician of Gainesville, Florida and a member of the American Academy of Committee on nutrition of the Pediatrics, says that she does not give candy, fruit or pencils instead; for the moment his house came out unscathed.

When her children were young, Silverstein would buy their candy for a piece of nickel. It recommends that the parents of his patient, too - but not necessarily its other solution - she used to eat candy of her children.

In some places, children are ready to give up their candy can do more nickel. Approximately 1 500 dentists across the country agreed this year to participate in a takeover of Halloween Candy organized by Operation Gratitude. The Californian group sends periodically packages to American troops overseas. Some dentists pay children for $1 per pound of candy Halloween; last year, the program brought in 250 000 pounds of candy, said Carolyn Blashek, founder of the Van Nuys, California group.

Blashek said troops overseas the appreciation in recognition, and candy Halloween brings back lots of background childhood memories. Some have given their candy to Afghan children, she noted. Enter your postal code on the Group's Web site, http://bit.ly/F1iSy will identify participating dentists.

Parents who have the intention to encourage waive candy should be sure not to take immediate, explains Brian Wansink, a behavior scientist food Cornell University and author of "" eat foolish: why eat us more than we think. ""

That is, by a principle of psychology, called "the Endowment effect." It refers to children feel a sense of ownership and put high on candy in that they transport.

If you leave eating several pieces first sense may fade and they do same feeling hungry and more. This is the time to offer a trade, said Wansink.

He tried this trick with his own three daughters, aged 2, 4 and 6 and said "it works like a charm." His daughters abandon looking forward to the rest of their Halloween Candy in exchange for a new piece of jewellery or other toys that don't rot their teeth, he said.

Young children are not really aware of how they were brought back, and when "they are kind of loot, it probably is the age where children should not be trick or treat," said.
