Parents across the country are rushing their children to the dentist due to rotting teeth.
The problem is due in large part to sugary soft drinks and junk food.
Younger and younger children are showing problems with rotten baby teeth.
This is because some parents are giving their children soda.
They put it into sippy cups to keep the child happy.
Parents need to be very careful about the types of food and drinks their child consumes.
For example, fruit juice also contains massive amounts of sugar but is marketed as “healthy.”
Children who are fed this food at a young age develop a certain dependence on it.
By limiting these treats to just special occasions, parents can teach their children good eating habits and promote healthy living.
Before buying certain products, be sure to read the labels carefully.
Pay close attention the sugars in food and drinks so you aren’t overdoing it with your child.
It is vitally important for parents to teach their children healthy habits!
