Manufacturers are well aware of the idea that children can be easily hooked on sugary foods and beverages. Ninety-five percent of the "dishwater" that is available from stores is water with sugar in it. It will probably also contain a small percentage of fruit, taste and aroma enhancers, bright colorings agents, and preservatives. These drinks cause tooth decay and in addition upset the stomach’s acid balance.
Teach your child to quench their thirst with water.
Fresh fruit and vegetable juices contain many calories, vitamins, and minerals but only minimal amounts of fibre. Consumption of this type of fresh juice should be limited. I recommend maximum 8-10 ounces (2-3 decilitre) daily.
