Abstract

BACKGROUND

The aim of this study was to investigate consumer perception of ionic beverage consumption by young children as a potential link to their excessive use.

METHODS

We studied parents' awareness of ionic beverages and the current pattern of use in their young children using a self-administered questionnaire.

RESULTS

A total of 424 responses were recorded. Approximately 25-33% of parents believed that ionic beverages are good for health and rich in nutrients and vitamins, but, only 5.9% of the parents agreed with the statement that ionic beverages are safe to consume in large quantities. Regarding their use, 11 children (2.6%) were drinking ionic beverages every day or several times a week. The parents of these children were classified into the frequent use group. The rates at which parents agreed with statements that ionic beverages are good for health and rich in vitamins were higher in the frequent use group than in controls.

CONCLUSION

Parental awareness of ionic beverages, and current consumption patterns in their young children are generally good. Having a positive opinion about the benefits of ionic beverages was associated with excessive consumption.

摘要

背景

本研究旨在调查消费者对于幼儿饮用离子饮料的认知，以及这与幼儿过度饮用离子饮料之间可能存在的联系。

方法

我们通过一份自填式问卷，研究了家长对离子饮料的认知以及他们幼儿目前的饮用模式。

结果

共记录到424份回复。约25%-33%的家长认为离子饮料有益健康且富含营养和维生素，但只有5.9%的家长认同大量饮用离子饮料是安全的这一说法。在饮用情况方面，11名儿童（2.6%）每天或每周数次饮用离子饮料。这些儿童的家长被归为频繁饮用组。频繁饮用组家长认同离子饮料有益健康且富含维生素的比例高于对照组。
