According to a study conducted by Canadian researchers Preschoolers who consume high-sugar drinks, such as juices (juices), soda, or soda, are more likely to be overweight than those who do not consume them.
Drinks with high caloric contents have been associated with obesity in children for some time, but apparently not all studies related to the subject have found enough evidence to support this claim.
However, a recent study, whose results were published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, found that children who regularly (at least 4 or 6 times a week) drink sodas, soda or fruit juices (not 100% natural) between meals and at snack time, they are twice as likely to be overweight as children who do not consume high-calorie drinks between meals.
According to one of the members of the team that conducted the research, offering children 100% natural fruit juices or juices and milk is a better choice.
Another thing that we should consider according to the researcher is that by giving a glass of juice to a child, it will probably cause her appetite to disrupt for mealtime, so if the child wants a drink to quench their thirst a glass of water is better and I totally agree on that. I think it is very important that we accustom our children from small to drink water.
