Hexes drinks tend to contain a lot of additives, such as artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, preservatives, etc. Although these additives can make the drink more appealing, the nutritional value is relatively low, and long-term consumption may cause damage to the child's health.

For example, an excess of artificial colors may worsen ADHD symptoms in children, affecting their learning and behavior. Secondly, excessive intake of certain additives may also interfere with the normal growth and development of children. These additives may affect children's immunity, fertility, and pose a risk to their future health. To make matters worse, some additives may also have negative effects on a child's thyroid, metabolic and digestive systems.

In addition to the problems mentioned above, certain ingredients in Hextech drinks may also increase the risk of cancer in children. For example, compounds such as nitrates and nitrites, although commonly used to store and color food, may increase the risk of stomach and intestinal distemper in children if consumed in excess. Therefore, we should try to avoid letting our children consume too many of these compounds.

In addition, hexical drinks contain a lot of sugar, and excessive sugar intake may lead to health problems such as childhood obesity and diabetes. Obesity and diabetes not only have a serious impact on children's physical health, but can also affect their mental health, such as triggering emotional problems such as low self-esteem and depression.
