Wellness Wednesday

Nutrition: Hydration
Kids are drinking less water, and sugar-sweetened beverages now account for the largest percentage
of added sugar in American diets. Dehydration can be a reason for low energy and can contribute to
serious consequences at sporting events. Encourage your child to stay hydrated with plain water, water
infused with fruits or vegetables, 100% juice, or unsweetened tea. Learn more at Rethink Your Drink.
