How to fill the lack of water in the child’s body?
Eat watery fruits: Eat plenty of water to keep the baby hydrated. Also, eat more fruits and vegetables that contain water. In addition to replenishing the water deficit, other nutrients also enter the body. Nutrients like vitamins, fiber, minerals are very important when the child is growing.
Make your child understand the importance of drinking water: If you are at home, you can nag him to drink water, but if you go to school, it is not possible. Besides, it is difficult to remember to hold water every now and then. So, if the child is not very young, tell him about the role of water in keeping him healthy. Try to explain.
Feed saline occasionally: Make a glass of saline instead of water when you come back from school or after playing sports.
Feed lemonade: Make baby lemonade instead of soft drinks, processed drinks. Lemons are high in vitamin C. As a result can fight with diseases.
