The Hawaii Department of Health has launched a campaign called “Sweet Lies!” which aims to educate parents about the deceptive marketing techniques used by the beverage industry. The campaign highlights that sweetened fruit drinks contain added sugar and are not 100% juice. Health experts recommend that children should not drink sweetened fruit drinks as the added sugar in them can lead to tooth decay, weight gain, and diabetes.
