❓ At what age can children be given ice cream?

🍦We pediatricians do not recommend giving ice cream to children until they are three years old. Because some functions of the gastrointestinal tract of children under the age of three are not yet fully formed. Due to the lack of local immunity in the throat, the throat hurts. Children's digestive system absorbs milk well, but other additives in ice cream weigh it down.

🍧 When choosing ice cream for children, you should choose ice cream with minimum sugar and fat content, without preservatives, dyes and flavors.

❗️ Children under 6-7 years old should be given melted ice cream. Then you will prevent a possible sore throat.
