Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) contributes to adverse health outcomes and excess health care spending. To provide context for ongoing work assessing the impact of public health strategies, including SSB excise taxes, we used data from the California Health Interview Survey from 2011-2018 to estimate trends in beverage consumption among adults, teens, and children overall and by education, race/ethnicity, and family income. We found reductions in the annual prevalence and frequency of soda consumption across all age groups and heterogeneous increases in the consumption of fruit drinks among adults and children. Surveillance of beverage consumption trends will continue to strengthen and improve the ability of researchers and policy makers to effectively improve population health.
饮用含糖饮料（SSB）会对健康产生不良影响，并导致医疗保健支出增加。为了为正在进行的评估公共卫生策略（包括 SSB 消费税）影响的工作提供背景，我们使用了 2011 年至 2018 年加利福尼亚健康访谈调查的数据，来估计成年人、青少年和儿童的饮料消费总体趋势，以及按教育程度、种族和家庭收入划分的趋势。我们发现，所有年龄段的苏打水消费的年度流行率和频率都有所降低，而成年人和儿童的果汁饮料消费呈异质增长。对饮料消费趋势的监测将继续加强，并提高研究人员和政策制定者有效改善人口健康的能力。
