How safe is adding malted milk(horlicks) to my son's milk? he usually takes his milk plain without sugar. he'll be 3 this may. does he need that? thks

Why start now?: If your son drinks plain white milk already without additives, it's best to leave it that way. Malted milk powder has little nutritional value and adds excess sugar to his diet. Besides, once you start sweetening it, you might not be able to get him to take plain milk again!
