Name: Children and Juice
Ingredients: JUICE OVERLOAD

Pleasure is the measure of our treasure. How do you measure or assess the value of something you cherish? How do you determine the worth of a prize? Is it not by the depth of pleasure you derive from it? Is it not by the intensity and quality of your delight in what it is? Is it not by how excited and enthralled and thrilled you are in the manifold display of its attributes, characteristics, and properties? In other words, your satisfaction in what the treasure is and what the treasure does for you is the standard or gauge by which its glory (worth and value) is revealed. Hence, your pleasure is the measure of the treasure. Or again, the treasure, which is God, is most glorified in and by you when your pleasure in Him is maximal and optimal.

INSTRUCTIONS

Like many parents, you may consider "natural" fruit juice a healthy snack,
and if you have a picky eater, you may be tempted to give him/her lots of
juice to supplement their diet. But young children who drink large amounts
of fruit juice, apple juice in particular, are at risk for severe
nutritional deficiencies that can interfere with normal growth, according
to researchers at the Maimonides Medical Center in New York City. Drinking
juice throughout the day will decrease a child's appetite, making eating
problems even worse. Juices with lots of fructose and sorbitol sugars can
cause diarrhea, bloating, and cramps when not fully digested. And kids who
constantly guzzle juice from a bottle are susceptible to cavity-causing
bacteria. It's best to give young children real fruits and vegetables or
water, which is essential for a balanced diet and won't interfere with
their appetites. If you decide to serve juice, wait until your child is a
year old and serve it only in a cup as a beverage with a meal - not as a
snack. Toddlers should drink no more than four to eight ounces of juice a
day. Older kids should be limited to one or two cups daily, each with a
meal. *By Jeffrey L. Brown, M.D., F.A.A.P., taken from August 1994 issue of
