When I was a teenager, I was mad about those sweet and sour soft drinks and sweet ice cream. And my brother always has sweet drinks instead of plain water all day long. These colorful drinks and milky aroma pull your nerve tightly and it is really hard to deny it, especially for kids and teenagers. Kids don’t like plain water, which is the most useful ingredient of our body and most easily absorbed substance by our body. The importance of water may be not thoroughly realized by us. A lot of illness is resulted from inadequate water we have. Somebody will say that he feel nothing uncomfortable of his body even though a lot of soft drinks poured into the stomach. How to explain it?
From my point of view, water, especially plain water, is the most important medium for the chemical reaction in the cell. It enhances the good circulation of blood, transportation of waste and urination. However, most of the soft drinks in the market today are added by industry additives. Our kids’ attention is all drew on those delicious and good looking drinks with beautiful wrappers around and cool movie star printed on the bottle. The next step is trying to let your kids have more plain water. From now on, tell kids as much as you can that if you want to be pretty, drink water. If you want to be healthy, drink water. If you want to be slim, still drink water. Parents should be kids’ example at the same time.
