    Healthy vs. Non-Healthy Drinks

    Marshfield R-I School vending machines offer 100% juice, water, and flavored/non-flavored milk. Water is essential for hydration, while juice and milk provide nutrients to keep your body healthy.

    Drinks to Avoid: Energy shots/drinks with high fructose syrup, caffeine, taurine, or guarana, as these can be harmful when mixed with certain medications and are often not FDA-approved.
