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.
