Sugar-sweetened beverage intakes among adults between 1990 and 2018 in 185 countries
Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are associated with cardiometabolic dis- eases and social inequities. For most nations, recent estimates and trends of intake are not available; nor variation by education or urbanicity. We investi- gated SSB intakes among adults between 1990 and 2018 in 185 countrie...

Zusammenfassung: | Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are associated with cardiometabolic dis-
eases and social inequities. For most nations, recent estimates and trends of
intake are not available; nor variation by education or urbanicity. We investi-
gated SSB intakes among adults between 1990 and 2018 in 185 countries,
stratified subnationally by age, sex, education, and rural/urban residence,
using data from the Global Dietary Database. In 2018, mean global SSB intake
was 2.7 (8 oz = 248 grams) servings/week (95% UI 2.5-2.9) (range: 0.7 (0.5-1.1) in
South Asia to 7.8 (7.1-8.6) in Latin America/Caribbean). Intakes were higher in
male vs. female, younger vs. older, more vs. less educated, and urban vs. rural
adults. Variations by education and urbanicity were largest in Sub-Saharan
Africa. Between 1990 and 2018, SSB intakes increased by +0.37 (+0.29, +0.47),
with the largest increase in Sub-Saharan Africa. These findings inform inter-
vention, surveillance, and policy actions worldwide, highlighting the growing
problem of SSBs for public health in Sub-Saharan Africa. |
