Kids soft drinks
Too many soft drinks can make your child a soft target for a variety
of ailments -- obesity, tooth decay, headaches, poor sleep, osteoporosis
(thinning and weakening of the bones), irritable bowel syndrome,
cancer...
Having an occasional soft drink on a hot and exhausting day won't
harm anyone, but it has to stay at that -- an occasional indulgence.
Soft drinks quench thirst (which water will do as well), but they
should be recognised as liquid sweets. They have calories in the form
of sugar, and no proteins or fats. Each bottle contains about 125
calories, and children who have several a day are likely to be
overweight.
