At What Age Can Children Eat Sugar?
hěn duō很多jiā zhǎng家长zài在gěi给hái zi孩子zuò fàn做饭huò或mǎi买líng shí零食shí时 ，zǒng总xiǎng想jiā加yì diǎn一点táng糖 ，jué de觉得hái zi孩子huì会gèng更xǐ huān喜欢 。
When cooking for their children or buying snacks, many parents always want to add a little sugar because they think their children will like it more.
dàn shì但是 ，guò zǎo过早gěi给hái zi孩子chī吃táng糖 ，kě néng可能duì对jiàn kāng健康yǒu有bù hǎo不好de的yǐng xiǎng影响 。
However, giving children sugar too early may have negative effects on their health.
nà me那么 ，hái zi孩子duō dà多大cái才kě yǐ可以chī吃táng糖ne呢 ？
So, how old should a child be before they can eat sugar?
zhuān jiā专家jiàn yì建议 ，bù tóng不同nián líng年龄de的hái zi孩子duì对chī吃táng糖de的guī dìng规定bù不yī yàng一样 。
Experts recommend different rules for sugar intake for children of different ages.
shǒu xiān首先 ，yī suì一岁yǐ xià以下de的hái zi孩子jué duì绝对bù néng不能chī吃táng糖 。
First, children under one year old must not eat sugar at all.
zhè ge这个shí hòu时候hái zi孩子de的shēn tǐ身体hái还zài在fā yù发育 ，chī吃táng糖huì会zēng jiā增加shēn tǐ身体de的fù dān负担 。
At this time, their bodies are still developing, and eating sugar increases the burden on the body.
qí cì其次 ，yī dào sān suì一到三岁de的hái zi孩子jǐn liàng尽量bú yào不要chī吃táng糖 。
Second, children aged one to three should avoid sugar as much as possible.
rì cháng日常yǐn shí饮食yīng gāi应该bǎo chí保持shí wù食物yuán lái原来de的wèi dào味道 ，shǎo少chī吃táng guǒ糖果hé和dàn gāo蛋糕 。
Their daily diet should keep the natural taste of foods, with fewer candies and cakes.
zuì hòu最后 ，sān suì三岁yǐ shàng以上de的hái zi孩子kě yǐ可以shāo wēi稍微chī吃yì diǎn一点 ，dàn但měi tiān每天zuì hǎo最好bú yào不要chāo guò超过èr shí wǔ kè二十五克 ，yě也jiù shì就是wǔ dào liù kuài五到六块fāng táng方糖de的liàng量 。
Finally, children over three years old can eat a small amount, but it is best not to exceed 25 grams a day, which is about five to six sugar cubes.
lìng wài另外 ，shuì jiào睡觉qián前yí dìng一定bú yào不要chī吃tián shí甜食 。
Also, they should never eat sweet foods before going to bed.
wèi shén me为什么bù néng不能gěi给hái zi孩子chī吃tài duō太多táng糖ne呢 ？
Why should children not eat too much sugar?
yīn wèi因为bái táng白糖méi yǒu没有tài duō太多yíng yǎng营养 。
Because white sugar does not have much nutritional value.
chī吃duō多le了bù dàn不但róng yì容易zhǎng长zhù yá蛀牙 ，hái还huì会ràng让hái zi孩子biàn dé变得tiāo shí挑食 ，shèn zhì甚至yǐn qǐ引起biàn pàng变胖de的wèn tí问题 。
Eating too much can not only easily cause cavities, but also make children picky eaters and even lead to weight gain.
cǐ wài此外 ，chī吃tài duō太多táng糖hái还huì会ràng让hái zi孩子guò yú过于xīng fèn兴奋 ，yǐng xiǎng影响shuì mián睡眠hé和xué xí学习shí时de的zhuān zhù lì专注力 。
In addition, too much sugar can make children overly excited, affecting sleep and concentration while studying.
rú guǒ如果xiǎng想ràng让shí wù食物biàn变tián甜 ，jiā zhǎng家长kě yǐ可以yòng用nán guā南瓜 、píng guǒ苹果huò或hóng zǎo红枣děng等tiān rán天然shí wù食物dài tì代替bái táng白糖 。
If parents want to make food sweeter, they can use natural foods such as pumpkin, apples, or red dates instead of white sugar.
zhè xiē这些shí wù食物bù jǐn不仅hǎo chī好吃 ，yě也gèng更jiàn kāng健康 。
These foods are not only tasty, but also healthier.
píng shí平时mǎi买líng shí零食shí时 ，yě也yào要zhù yì注意suān nǎi酸奶huò或bǐng gān饼干lǐ里shì bú shì是不是jiā加le了hěn很duō多táng糖 。
When buying snacks, parents should also check whether yogurt or biscuits contain a lot of added sugar.
cóng xiǎo从小yǎng chéng养成jiàn kāng健康de的yǐn shí饮食xí guàn习惯fēi cháng非常zhòng yào重要 。
It is very important to develop healthy eating habits from an early age.
shǎo少chī吃táng糖bù jǐn不仅néng能bǎo hù保护yá chǐ牙齿 ，hái还néng能bāng zhù帮助hái zi孩子jiàn kāng健康zhǎng dà长大 。
Eating less sugar can not only protect teeth, but also help children grow up healthily.
suǒ yǐ所以 ，jiā zhǎng家长men们bú yào不要zǒng shì总是yòng用táng guǒ糖果lái来hǒng哄hái zi孩子le了 。
Therefore, parents should not always use candy to coax their children.
