Does TV advertising influence on your

choice?

Choose beverages with bright and natural

colors Drinks that contain sugar is preferable to the

drinks with colorings. Diet drinks contain only sweeteners. Drinks with sweeteners are recommended to

keep in the fridge Don`t drink overdue beverages Glass bottle is safer than plastic one.

Remember

What and how much to drink and what to choose:

a beautiful advertisement or

a healthy way of life

each of us decides for himself.
