When new federal guidelines were issued recently on how much, or how little, processed sugar infants and toddlers should consume, parents might have understandably rolled their eyes.
The recommendation was zero. That’s right, nada.
In their first guidance for this age group, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Department of Health jointly published recommendations in December that infants and toddlers under 2 should consume no processed sugar. Their rationale: Research has linked sugar consumption to childhood obesity and future ailments such as heart disease. The recommendations also urged that babies to age 6 months consume only breast milk.
Eliza Lagerquist, a dietitian at UW Medical Center – Montlake, said the guidelines might not be as onerous as they seem at first glance. For more on Lagerquist’s thoughts the new guidelines, check out this UW Medicine Newsroom blog.
