The quantity of various fluids ingested in winter by 160 six-year-old children living in a northern climate (54 degrees N.) was surveyed as part of a study to determine whether the amount of dental decay was related to the amount of fluoridated water ingested. Only milk, water and fruit juices were found to be important sources of dietary fluid. Total fluids ingested ranged from 11.7 to 91.0 oz. per day, whereas milk intake varied from 3.1 to 52.0 oz. and water intake from 0 to 29.0 oz. per day. Twenty-four children did not drink water as such. The results, when compared with previous reports, indicate that a greater quantitative and qualitative variation in ingested fluids may occur in cool climates, possibly owing to the absence of a constant fluid demand imposed by evaporation for body cooling. Further elucidation of these differences could influence the vehicle and dosage of nutritional supplements to dietary fluids.
作为一项确定龋齿数量是否与摄入的含氟水量有关的研究的一部分，对居住在北方气候地区（北纬54度）的160名六岁儿童冬季摄入的各种液体量进行了调查。结果发现，只有牛奶、水和果汁是饮食中液体的重要来源。每天摄入的液体总量在11.7至91.0盎司之间，而牛奶摄入量从3.1至52.0盎司不等，水摄入量从0至29.0盎司不等。24名儿童不喝水。与之前的报告相比，结果表明，在凉爽气候下，摄入液体的数量和质量可能会有更大的差异，这可能是由于缺乏因身体散热蒸发而产生的恒定液体需求。对这些差异的进一步阐明可能会影响营养补充剂在饮食液体中的载体和剂量。
