What’s the best drink to quench a thirst? Water! Eagle Industries Corp. has all the solutions you need.
Fruit juice, which contains Vitamin C, is often seen as a healthy drink choice. However, fruit juices are high in sugar, just like fruit drinks, flavoured mineral water, energy drinks and soft drinks. A 250ml cup of apple juice or cola contains up to six teaspoons of sugar.
You can have them occasionally, but these drinks are not a necessary part of a healthy diet.
The recommended daily amount of fluids for children are:
- 5 glasses (1 litre) for 5 to 8 year olds
- 7 glasses (1.5 litres) for 9 to12 year olds
- 8 to10 glasses (2 litres) for 13+ years
You should drink more water when you’re exercising or on a hot day.
Tips to help you drink more water
- Bring a water bottle everywhere you go.
- In summer, put a frozen water bottle in your lunch box.
- Keep cold water in the fridge during summer and drink warm in the winter.
- Water down juices and/or sport drinks.
- Limit those sugary drinks.
