RIYADH: Parents should be mindful at all times of the food they give their children, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority has said, as it emphasized the critical role of families in healthcare.
In a statement carried on the occasion of World Obesity Day on March 4, the SFDA urged parents “to encourage children to replace sugary drinks, such as soft drinks, with water and natural fruit juices.”
Families should also “significantly reduce fast-food consumption, a key contributor to weight gain and related health issues,” said the statement carried by the SPA.RIYADH: Parents should be mindful at all times of the food they give their children, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority has said, as it emphasized the critical role of families in healthcare.
