Some parents, in order to encourage their children to eat more, particularly like to add white sugar to milk and porridge. This easily leads children to develop a preference for sweets. In daily life, control the amount of snacks your child consumes. Foods high in sugar, such as candy, chocolate, and jelly should be minimized to maintain a low-sugar diet for your child.
1. Prevent excessive sugar consumption
Some parents, in order to encourage their children to eat more, like to add white sugar to milk and porridge. This easily leads children to develop a preference for sweets. Control the amount of snacks your baby eats, and minimize sugary treats, chocolate, and jelly, keeping your baby's diet low in sugar.
2. Choose the right time to eat sugar
Children should absolutely not be given sugar or sweets on an empty stomach, after a full meal, within 2 hours of a meal, or before bedtime.
3. What to do when your baby insists on having sugar
If your baby likes to eat sugar, parents can make an agreement with their baby, specifying the amount they can eat per week and when they can eat it. For example, during the Spring Festival, there are abundant New Year's goods at home, and it is inevitable that you will be treated to sweets when visiting relatives and friends. You can make an agreement with your baby in advance that they can only eat one candy and two biscuits a day.
4. Don't use sugar as a special reward
When a child is sick, don't give them sweets to improve their taste; this is not conducive to their recovery.
5. Pay attention to hidden sugars
In addition to some well-known junk foods, there are also sugars hidden where they are not easily noticed, such as fruit juice and overly sweet fruits. When giving your child fruit juice, control the amount; no more than 150ml per day, and choose pure fruit juice. Try to encourage your baby to eat more fruit and drink less fruit juice. If the fruit is overly sweet, do not consume it excessively.
6. Strengthen teeth protection
Eating sugar easily leads to cavities, but it's not possible to avoid it completely. If you can brush your teeth immediately after eating sugar, the chances of your baby getting cavities can be greatly reduced. In addition, regularly taking your child to the dental clinic for checkups and addressing problems promptly can also protect their teeth from the harm of sugar.
