Assuming candy isn't your biggest willpower challenge, a few pieces of candy corn might keep you on track. Studies show that consuming sugar makes people persevere longer on difficult tasks, better able to focus, and more likely to delay gratification. A shot of sugar can restore your willpower.This benefit could not be explained by other factors such as age, smoking, exercise, alcohol consumption, or weight. A multi-decade study from the Harvard School of Public Health showed that modest candy consumption (one to three times a month) is associated with the greatest benefit, but even those with a daily habit lived longer than those who never indulged.


People who regularly eat candy live longer than those who don't.
