Make it a #SodaFreeAugust
Join the Storm — and make it a water storm! Join the Campaign for Dental Health (@ILikeMyTeeth) next Thursday, July 28 at 2 p.m. ET (11 a.m. PT) for a one-hour social media storm to encourage parents and caregivers to make next month a #SodaFreeAugust! Participate for the full hour or simply post a message at some time during the hour and include #SodaFreeAugust.
Health experts call soda "liquid candy," and it's no wonder. Regular consumption of sodas has been linked to obesity, Type 2 diabetes and tooth decay. We know that soda isn't the only high-sugar beverage, so we'll use this storm to educate families and their advocates about healthy beverages. Grow the movement to promote plain drinking water as a thirst-quencher.
Contact fluoride@aap.org with any questions.
