My DD doesn't tolerate sugar real well either but doesn't get sick ... just hyper! Now that we seem to be on the b-day circuit w/ a party 2-3 x a month it makes it REAL hard to limit her sugar! Esp since the goody bags from the party or normally filled w/ lollipops, mini candy bars, sweet tarts etc! right on the heels of the b-day cake and icecream @ the party.
At 3.5 she does realize that it has an effect and knows I prefer liimits. So she normally brings the candy home and we put it in a jar on her shelf in the pantry. It is "hers" and she can "have it" so she ask and tries to limit it to 1 / day!
I do think w/ a little more "age" your DD will understand the effect on her as well and elect to limit herself.
But it wouldn't hurt to do a little medical research to see if there is a link to allergy etc. My DD is G6PD which is an enzyme deficiency and has to limit lots of medications, vitamins and a few foods.
