I've nc as this will out me in rl as I've spiked to friends about this.
I've been concerned about my dd having juice everyday as she has to have a medicine which is a powder mixed with water but it tastes like salt water so when first prescribed the dr advised mixing 20-30 ml of pure juice with it, it can take my dd all morning to sip the drink (70ml in total). When at the GP for a check I mentioned how I give it to her and the gp was horrified about the juice everyday and the damage it will cause her teeth. Today at the dentist I asked and the dentist said to stop pure juice (even if watered down) straight away and use a sugar free squash.
I've never used sugar free squash as I'm weary of the artificial sweeteners being bad, I've just googled 'aspartame' and really don't want to give it to my dd.
Does anyone know of any squashes with minimal sweetener, or better sweeteners which haven't been linked to all kinds of health problems?
TIA
