Many parents are surprised to find that juice can be harmful to their child’s teeth. Juice, like milk, contains sugar. Juice is not recommended to be given in a bottle or even a sippy cup. When the child is old enough to drink from a cup, health experts recommend limiting juice to ½ cup a day and giving it at meal time, not as a snack. Milk is a better alternative for nutrition, and water is recommended for quenching thirst.
