Abstract
The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs)
has increased worldwide in the last four decades. In the
USA, there has been a twofold increase, and in developing
countries such as India and China, Coca Cola reported a
14% and 18% sales increase respectively in 2007 alone.
The list of sugar-sweetened drinks comprises sodas or fi zzy
drinks, fruit drinks and energy and vitamin water drinks
and excludes 100% fruit juices not blended with sweetening
agents such as sucrose, high-fructose corn syrup or
fruit juice concentrates. Health experts are calling for a
reduction in consumption of SSBs because of the increasing
evidence of association between SSB consumption
and obesity in children and adults. Furthermore, association
between habitual SSB consumption and metabolic
syndrome and type 2 diabetes is gaining momentum.
