Eat Healthy

 High levels of sugar consumption are associated with a greater risk of tooth decay. Drinking high-sugar beverages can result in weight gain and the associated increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. Here is few tips which will help:

  1.  : • 4-6 year old should have no more than 19g of sugar a day (5 sugar cubes)
  2.  • 7-10 year old should have no more than 24g of sugar a day (6 sugar cubes) 
  3. • 11+ year old should have no more than 30g of sugar a day (7 sugar cubes) 
  4. • Avoid sugary food and drinks before bedtime 
  5. • Sugary foods should be eaten less often and only at mealtimes
  6.  • Sugary drinks have no place in a child’s daily diet. The best drinks are lower fat milks and water 
  7. • Fruit and vegetable juices contain vitamins and minerals and can count as one of a child’s five a day. However, intake should be limited to 150ml a day and should only be consumed at mealtimes
  8.  • Parents don’t need to worry about sugar in lower fat milks or plain low fat, lower sugar yoghurts 
  9. • Don’t replace sugary snacks with salty ones. Recommend snacks such as plain homemade popcorn or rice cakes 
  10. Don't eat or drink two hours before bed time but Water & milk.
