Dianggap Aman untuk Anak, Ternyata 4 Minuman Ini Tak Direkomendasikan Dokter

"Because, there are drinks that seem safe for children but actually can be harmful to their health and not recommended by doctors."

This was revealed by dr. Melia Yunita, MSc, SpA on her Instagram account @dr.lia_pediatrics. According to her, there are several drinks that are often served for children but are actually unhealthy. What are they?

1. Milk with a sweet taste

1. Milk with a sweet taste

Chocolate strawberry milk and other flavored milk contain additional sugar. It tastes sweeter, which is why children like it.

Children under 5 years old should also avoid sweetened milk to minimize additional sugar intake and avoid developing a preference for sweetness.

2. 100% Fruit Juice

2. 100% Fruit Juice

This juice does not contain fiber, which is an important nutrient found in whole fruits.

Consuming fruit directly is always more recommended than drinking juice. So, it is better to consume fruit directly, no need to juice it if you want to give it to children.

3. Tea

3. Tea

Coffee and tea should not be given to children, in any form. This is because both contain caffeine.

Caffeine increases the risk of poor sleep, easily getting angry, restlessness, headaches, and difficulty concentrating. It is advisable for children to avoid all drinks containing caffeine, including tea.

4. Minuman tinggi gula

4. High sugar drinks

Beverages with high sugar content such as soda, fruit-flavored drinks, and other flavored drinks are harmful to children's health.

Can increase the risk of excessive weight gain, tooth decay, heart disease, and diabetes. "Get your little one used to choosing plain water as their main drink. Avoid unhealthy drinks and those containing added sugar to maintain optimal health and growth for your little one," Dr. Lia advises.
