Sugar is a source of energy, but needs to be consumed in recommended portions, that is 4-5 tsp a day as it is also low in other nutrients like vitamins & minerals. Eating too much sugar increases the chance of the child being overweight. NANGROWTM contains lactose that provides sweetness to the drink and we recommend no further addition of sugar to the drink.

Eating too much sugar increases the chance of the child being overweight. Limit the intake of sugary foods such as candies, cookies, cakes, sweetened soft drinks, packaged fruit juices, pastries etc. These can be served as special treats.
Try to satisfy the sweet cravings of your child through dates/raisins/figs/ sweet fruits which are sources of calories as well as nutrients like vitamins & minerals.
Don’t force-feed your child. If your child rejects a particular food try serving it with other foods that they like or you can retry at a different meal time. Children need to be offered a new food as many as 10-15 times before they will eat it.
