There is a lot of controversy as to when to give your baby fruit drink.
* Infants under 6 months of age should not be given juice, unless your pediatrician recommends it for constipation.
* Younger children aged 1 to 6 years should have only 4-6 ounces of juice a day.
* Instead of juice, try encouraging your child to eat whole fruit.
Benefits of Juice
Many kids don't like eating fruit, so offering fluoridated water is a good way to get your child fluoride if he or she doesn't like to drink plain water.
