The topic of ice cream as part of a child’s summer diet is one of the most pressing for parents.
Some adults treat their children to dairy products from an early age and see nothing wrong with it.
Others try to exclude the delicacy from their diet altogether.
Which position is correct?
Experts note that it is definitely not worth "introducing" children to this tasty product ahead of time. Store-bought ice cream may contain substances that are not the best for the development of the body.
The optimal age is three to four years.
But even in this case, you shouldn’t get carried away with the product.
Ice cream is a high-calorie food, and the problem of childhood obesity should not be underestimated. If you treat your baby to this delicacy too often, excess weight will appear. This can also lead to other health problems.
Therefore, try not to buy ice cream every day. If you make the product yourself, it will make the treat much healthier.
