Unless your doctor told you to do this- DO NOT DO IT!



There are a dozen bad things that can result from this. It is not even a good idea to use too much sweetened juice, or for older kids to drink a lot of pop (flavored sugar water).



Besides- plain water satisfies thirst better than sugar water does- sugar water just makes you thirsty again.Is it OK for me to give my 1 year old child drink glucose regularly rather than plain water when he is thirstySooooo, why the heck would you do this?





Especially at nighttime, you are really setting your kid up for terribly misformed/deformed/cavitied teeth. Not to mention possible systemic effects...plus it wont have the thirst quenching quality of plain water.Is it OK for me to give my 1 year old child drink glucose regularly rather than plain water when he is thirsty
I won't encourage it. It's better for your child to stick to water. Babies milk teeth is vulnerable.
