Question
My two-year-old daughter always needs sugar in the milk powder when drinking, but it’s not good to have sugar long-term as it can affect brain development. What can I substitute for sugar? Will replacing it with glucose cause precocious puberty? Note: She once accidentally took birth control pills, which led to breast development, but has improved after treatment. The doctor said she cannot take supplements, can she eat pork ribs?
Answer
Glucose can be used instead of sugar because it is more suitable for children, especially in terms of digestion. Remember to give the child two sips of water after drinking milk to maintain oral hygiene. It is recommended to feed the child boneless fish meat and eat more vegetables and fruits, which are better than supplements in providing the necessary nutrients.
