1. At what age can I begin serving NESTLÉ JUICY JUICE to my child?
The best time for your child to start drinking fruit juice is when he or she is ready to start drinking from a cup. This typically happens around 6 to 8 months of age.
TO INTRODUCE THAT FIRST SIP OF JUICE TO YOUR BABY:
Start with a diluted, gentle, non-acidic juice like apple. Measure 2 to 4 ounces of juice into a sippy cup. Limit the total amount of juice to no more than 4 ounces per day. Dilute the juice using the 1.1 ratio; one part water and one part juice. Remember, your baby’s primary source of nutrition is still breastmilk or formula.
Wait at least one week before offering a different fruit juice to make sure your baby has no allergic reactions. Avoid feeding them juice like orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, and tomato juices before 6 months of age, as those juices are more likely to cause an allergic reaction.
If you are unsure, consult your pediatrician.

8. What does NESTLÉ think about the American Pediatrics Association article on juice consumption?
We agree that 100% fruit juice can be a healthy part of child’s diet because it can be an excellent source of Vitamin C and potassium. 100% juices can also contain antioxidants that reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. NESTLÉ believes that all food and beverages should be consumed in moderation and that fruit juice should not be used as a replacement for milk or whole fruit.
