Who Put Candy on a Diet?

The latest trend in the food industry sees an influx of so-called "healthy" candies, marketed as "better-for-you" or "functional," flooding grocery and convenience stores and even making appearances in gyms and supplement shops. This shift reflects a growing consumer demand for healthier alternatives, yet it raises questions about the actual health benefits and the potential for misleading marketing. As these "healthy" confections become more prevalent, it's crucial to scrutinize their nutritional value and the motives behind their promotion.
