In California, more than 2 million adolescents (58%) drink soda or other sugar-sweetened beverages every day, and more than 1.6 million adolescents (46%) eat fast food at least twice a week. Adolescents who live and go to school in areas with more fast food restaurants and convenience stores than healthier food outlets such as grocery stores are more likely to consume soda and fast food than teens who live and go to school in areas with healthier food environments. State and local policy efforts to improve the retail food environment may be effective in improving adolescents' dietary behaviors.
在加利福尼亚州，超过200万青少年（58%）每天饮用苏打水或其他含糖饮料，超过160万青少年（46%）每周至少吃两次快餐。与在杂货店等健康食品店较多的地区生活和上学的青少年相比，在快餐店和便利店比健康食品店更多的地区生活和上学的青少年更有可能饮用苏打水和食用快餐。州和地方为改善零售食品环境所做的政策努力可能有助于改善青少年的饮食行为。
