Unhealthy Drinks That Has The Highest Sugar Level

Unhealthy Drinks were finally named, causing an alarming level of tooth decay to children.

A bid was organized by a local authority in Liverpool, naming soft drinks that has the highest sugar level.

Dr. Sandra Davies, director of Public Health, said: “We are the first local authority in the country to name how much sugar is in specific brands because we feel it is really important that all parents have the facts they need when making decisions about which drinks to give their children.”

“Many of us are not in the habit of studying labels on drinks and the evidence that we have is that people do not realise how much sugar is in them, so we are taking steps to support them to make healthier choices.”

“Our advice to parents is to take their child to the dentist by the age of one and teach them to brush their teeth correctly from an early age.”

Tim Beaumont, Councillor of Liverpool, said: “Through no fault of their own, families simply don’t realize how much sugar is in some of these drinks.”

“As well as leading to poor dental health, it is contributing to the obesity issue in Liverpool which means that one in four children starting primary school are overweight, rising 38 per cent for secondary school age pupils.”

“What we are trying to do through this campaign is get the message across that even drinks which are marketed as healthy such as orange juice and flavored water have large amounts of sugar in them.”

“This is about getting families and young children into healthy habits which will hopefully last a lifetime and prevent future unnecessary pain and trauma.”

A lot of fruit juices also contains food color and artificial flavors, which alongside sugars, does no good to our health. So what can you say about this article? Feel free to comment below!
