“…The negative impact of SSB consumption on children and adolescents remains a significant public health problem. There is evidence to indicate that SSB intake is not only related to obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) [ 37 ] but that it also affects the development of the nervous system in children [ 38 , 39 ]. According to Wesnes et al, the replacement of a typical breakfast with a sugary drink can lead to a decline in attention, concentration, and memory in children [ 40 ].…”

Adequate hydration is essential for good health, and an individual’s hydration status is determined by the quantity and type of ingested fluids. The aim of the present study was to determine the hydration status of school-age children and evaluate changes in the type and quantity of consumed beverages between 2018 and 2023. The study was conducted in two stages between 2018 and 2023, and a total of 1030 fully completed questionnaires were returned by the children and their parents. A comparison of the parents’ responses regarding factors that affect beverage choices revealed that beverage composition was more significant for the parents in 2023 than in 2018, whereas health-promoting properties were significant for only less than 30% of the respondents. Taste preferences were important for both the parents and the children, and they were the main criterion in the choice of beverages in both 2018 and 2023. In turn, advertising was an important factor for children, and the percentage of children who were guided by advertising in their choice of beverages increased from 52.1% in 2018 to 58.5% in 2023 (p < 0.05). Daily fluid intake in children aged 11–13 years generally does not meet physiological requirements. Low fluid intake can negatively affect children’s hydration status and bodily functions. Taste preferences and advertising were correlated with a higher intake of carbonated and non-carbonated sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and dairy beverages. The percentage of children who bought drinks independently and had access to SSBs increased significantly during the analyzed period. Obtain results indicate that nutrition education programs are needed to teach adolescents to make healthy drink choices, limit their consumption of SSBs and EDs, and promote regular intake of natural mineral water and non-sweetened dairy beverages.

Introduction: This study examined the association between sugar-sweetened beverage consumption before the first 24 months of life and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods: A population administrative cohort study was conducted in Korea (2008–2019) using linked national insurance data and a health screening survey. The cohort included 25,305 children in the exposed group with high sugar-sweetened beverage drinks (≥200 ml) and 339,931 in the reference groups (<200 ml) at 24 months of age. The primary outcome was the development of ADHD based on the International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes. Cox proportional model was used to identify the association between sugar-sweetened beverage consumption during early childhood and the later development of ADHD while controlling for multiple risk factors. Results: Over a mean follow-up period of 9.2 years, the incidence rates of ADHD were 29.6 and 23.8 per 10,000 person-years (PY) in the exposed and reference groups, respectively. Compared with the reference group, children consuming high-sugar drinks were at an increased risk of ADHD (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08–1.27). These associations remained significant even after applying alternative ADHD definitions or adjusting for confounding variables. Conclusion: Children who consume sweetened beverages during early childhood are at increased risk of developing ADHD later in life.
