Money Saving Tip #4:Stop Your Kids from eating Junk Food

This post is in continuation of my money saving tip series (see here)

Children in India seem to just love junk food like chips,fritters, colas, sodas,cream biscuits etc

While parents know that these are bad for their teeth and for their health, they seem helpless in front of their kid’s demands.

As paedatricians often warn, these foods contain colors and other allergens which result in coughs/colds/allergies in children.

A typical middle class family probably spends around Rs.100/week (if not more) on these kinds of foods.By cutting them out and convincing your kids to eat healthier alternatives, one can improve their health and save trips to the doctor.

Estimated Cost Savings:Rs.5200 per year

I think the saving is much more than what you have mentioned as the doctor charges Rs 300/ visit.
