The contribution of fruit juices to folate and potassium intakes was lower (about 7 to 12 percent) than for vitamin C but still higher than the calories supplied by fruit juices (about 3 to 5 percent).
Therefore, fruit juice appears to be a substitute for beverages such as soft drinks and fruit drinks but not for milk in the diets of children.

 Recipes Today — Fruit Juice

Some juices (such as apple and pear juices) are more likely than others (such as white grape juice) to cause this problem, but the AAP says this difference matters only if your child drinks a lot of juice.
If you want to pick a juice on the basis of nutrition, orange juice (which is naturally rich in vitamin C) is a good choice, or you might look for a juice that's fortified with vitamin C or calcium.

"Parents think that because fruit juices are natural that they are a healthy drink, so they don't put a limit on how much their children consume," says study author Dr. Sarita Dhuper, director of pediatric cardiology and the pediatric obesity clinic at the Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center.
Both groups exceeded the juice intake guidelines set by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which is four to six ounces per day for children aged 1 to 6 and eight to 12 ounces daily for children aged 7 to 18.
The study calls for parents to dramatically limit their children's juice consumption to meet the AAP guidelines, and for pediatricians to incorporate information on the links between fruit juices and obesity in all well-child visits.
