Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are a major source of calories in the diets of American children and adolescents. These beverages, which contain mainly sugar and few beneficial nutrients, have been linked to overweight, obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, dental caries, and other adverse conditions. Children of all ages consume SSBs, and schools, aided by the knowledge and direction of school nurses, can help students understand the health harms of SSBs, implement programs to discourage SSB intake, and play important roles in school and community efforts to limit SSBs.
含糖饮料（SSB）是美国儿童和青少年饮食中卡路里的主要来源。这些饮料主要含有糖和很少的有益营养物质，与超重、肥胖、2 型糖尿病、心脏病、龋齿和其他不良状况有关。所有年龄段的儿童都消费 SSB，学校在学校护士的知识和指导的帮助下，可以帮助学生了解 SSB 的健康危害，实施计划以劝阻 SSB 的摄入，并在限制 SSB 的学校和社区努力中发挥重要作用。
