Are giving toffees and cold drinks to kids in your families is the way of showing your love and affection nowadays??
Recently an 11 year old girl came to me was prediabetic and diagnosed with fatty liver grade 1.
Hba1c was high, triglycerides were elevated. Her family was shocked as kid was very active but stays at home maximum.
I was shocked to hear when grandparents and parents says let her enjoy candies and chips. The worst she will get cavities.
But no, due to their negligence and due to lack of outdoor activities, frequent consumption of packet foods ,this girl now has a fatty liver.
So, dear families, stop pampering your kids with such packet foods and keeping their life at risk. Instead give them your time and healthy options which are good for them. Yes you can treat them with sweets ,candies ,chocolate, cold drinks occasionally not frequently.
