To describe the regional and socio-economic distribution of consumption of added sugar in Brazil in 2002/03, particularly products, sources of sugar and trends in the past 15 years.
The study used data from Household Budget Surveys since the 1980s about the type and quantity of food and beverages bought by Brazilian families. Different indicators were analyzed: % of sugar calories over the total diet energy and caloric % of table sugar fractions and sugar added to processed food/ sugar calories of diet.
In 2002/03, of the total energy available for consumption, 16.7% came from added sugar in all regional and socio-economic strata. The table sugar/ sugar added to processed food ratio was inversely proportional to increase in income. Although this proportion fell in the past 15 years, sugar added to processed food doubled, especially in terms of consumption of soft drinks and cookies.
Brazilians consume more sugar than the recommended levels determined by the WHO and the sources of consumption of sugar have changed significantly.
描述2002/03年巴西添加糖消费的地区和社会经济分布情况，尤其是产品、糖的来源以及过去15年的趋势。
该研究使用了自20世纪80年代以来家庭预算调查中关于巴西家庭购买的食品和饮料类型及数量的数据。分析了不同指标：糖热量占总饮食能量的百分比以及食糖部分和添加到加工食品中的糖的热量占饮食中糖热量的百分比。
在2002/03年，所有地区和社会经济阶层中，可供消费的总能量中有16.7%来自添加糖。食糖/添加到加工食品中的糖的比例与收入增加成反比。尽管这一比例在过去15年中有所下降，但添加到加工食品中的糖增加了一倍，尤其是在软饮料和饼干的消费方面。
巴西人的糖消费量高于世界卫生组织确定的推荐水平，并且糖的消费来源发生了显著变化。
