As parents, you work hard to ensure your children eat right. But what your children drink can also impact their health -today, tomorrow and in the future.

All beverages provide hydration, which is important for children and adults alike. Beverages like milk, soy beverages and fruit juice also provide nutrients that growing children need. Beverages can also be a source of calories that, while supporting energy needs, can add up quickly.

Understanding how beverages fit in a healthy lifestyle can help you guide your children's beverage intake in a way that supports their health and development. Learn more about the role of beverages in your child's diet.
