Abstract

Objective

Describe young children's beverage intake in early care and education (ECE) settings between 2008 and 2020 across multiple states in the US.

Methods

Multivariable-adjusted, age-stratified estimates of beverage consumption among children aged 12–60 months (n = 4,457) in ECE centers and homes (n = 846).

Results

During any given day in ECE, younger children had a 79.7% per-meal probability of consuming milk, 8.9% water, 19.8% 100% juice, and 3.2% sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), and a per-meal mean intake of 1.5 oz milk, 1.7 oz water, 2.2 oz 100% juice, and 2.9 oz SSBs. Older children had an 87.2% probability of consuming milk, 0.6% water, 2.9% 100% juice, and 4.2% SSBs, and a mean intake of 4.2 oz milk, 2.3 oz water, 3.6 oz 100% juice, and 5.9 oz SSBs.

Conclusions and Implications

There is room to improve beverage intake in ECE, with a focus on increasing water and decreasing juice and SSB consumption. These results may justify policies to limit or prohibit juice consumption in ECE.

美国早期护理和教育环境下儿童饮料消费，2008-2020。

目的：描述2008年至2020年间美国多个州早期护理和教育（ECE）环境中幼儿的饮料摄入量。方法：对ECE中心和家庭（n = 846） 12-60月龄儿童（n = 4,457）的饮料消费进行多变量调整、年龄分层估计。结果：在ECE的任何一天，幼儿每餐饮用牛奶的概率为79.7%，8.9%的水，19.8%的100%果汁和3.2%的含糖饮料（SSBs），每餐平均摄入1.5盎司牛奶，1.7盎司水，2.2盎司100%果汁和2.9盎司SSBs。年龄较大的儿童饮用牛奶、0.6%水、2.9% 100%果汁和4.2% SSBs的可能性为87.2%，平均摄入量为4.2盎司牛奶、2.3盎司水、3.6盎司100%果汁和5.9盎司SSBs。结论和意义：欧洲经委会的饮料摄入量有改善的空间，重点是增加水和减少果汁和SSB的消耗。这些结果可能证明限制或禁止欧洲经委会果汁消费的政策是合理的。
