How useful brew children

The brew is very refreshing in hot weather, therefore, is especially popular in the summer. However, many parents are wondering whether it is possible brew for the kids?

How useful brew?
Let's start with the fact that the brew successfully quenches thirst, it has a number of useful properties, which we need to know the parents:

 

  • brew promotes the acceleration of metabolism in the body;
  • kvass is rich in b vitamins, which help to fight fatigue and contribute to a good mood;
  • the brew has a beneficial effect on the immune system;
  • kvass is an excellent remedy for dysbiosis.
What age children can drink kvass?
Pediatricians recommend fermentation products to enter into the diet of the child, since one year of age, not before. The optimal age for children to explore the brew — 5-7 years. Low plank, called a number of professionals, 3 years, and still, it's better to wait because baby's digestive system cannot cope with such a product, which can cause gas and bloating that can cause pain in the child.

Why you should not buy kvass children?
Beer, made industrially, contains a large amount of sugar, flavors, colorants and other preservatives. So drink this brew can be dangerous for the child. Again, it is worth noting that in "adult" kvas contains alcohol, which may reach 1.2 %, which is clearly not good for the baby.
Curiously, today, manufacturers offer a special children's kvass. Let's see it.

Review
There is a perception that the shorter the list, the composition of the product, the more useful it is. Objectively, there is no clearly harmful ingredients, and certainly the composition of the brew attracts more than sweet drinks, however, if you have the opportunity, make kvas with their hands.
If you go back to the percentage of alcohol, for the child let the indicator — 0.5 percent.
Yes, and more. Remember, the more the shelf life of the brew, the less it is natural. For comparison: the expiration date Kasanka is 6 months, and shelf life of "live" kvass in a closed bottle for no more than 3 weeks shelf life open no more than 2-3 days.
