To compare the nutritional content, serving size and taxation potential of supermarket beverages from four different Western countries.
Cross-sectional analysis. Multivariate regression analysis and χ 2 comparisons were used to detect differences between countries.
Supermarkets in New Zealand (NZ), Australia, Canada and the UK.
Supermarket beverages in the following categories: fruit juices, fruit-based drinks, carbonated soda, waters and sports/energy drinks.
A total of 4157 products were analysed, including 749 from NZ, 1738 from Australia, 740 from Canada and 930 from the UK. NZ had the highest percentage of beverages with sugar added to them (52 %), while the UK had the lowest (39 %, P<0.001).
There is substantial difference between countries in the mean energy, serving size and proportion of products eligible for fiscal sugar taxation. Current self-regulatory approaches used in these countries may not be effective to reduce the availability, marketing and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and subsequent intake of free sugars.
比较来自四个不同西方国家的超市饮料的营养成分、份量和征税潜力。
横断面分析。多变量回归分析和 χ 2 比较用于检测国家之间的差异。
新西兰(NZ)、澳大利亚、加拿大和英国的超市。
以下类别的超市饮料:果汁、水果饮料、碳酸苏打水、水和运动/能量饮料。
共分析了 4157 种产品,其中 NZ 有 749 种,澳大利亚有 1738 种,加拿大有 740 种,英国有 930 种。NZ 添加糖的饮料比例最高(52%),而英国最低(39%,P<0.001)。
这些国家的平均能量、份量和有资格征收含糖税的产品比例存在很大差异。这些国家目前使用的自我监管方法可能无法有效减少含糖饮料的供应、营销和消费,以及随后的游离糖摄入量。
