Journal Article
Taxes on Sugar-Sweetened Beverages to Curb Future Obesity and Diabetes Epidemics
2014
Overview
Requiring many assumptions, the GBD team also estimated that 300,000 (95% uncertainty interval: 212,000 to 404,000) deaths per year were attributable to diets high in sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) [1], or about 0.6% of all deaths globally per year. [...]the impact of SSBs on global health is not as big as tobacco, alcohol, or salt, but it is still important. A feature of SSBs is how much they \"stand out\" as an unnecessary health risk--they tend to have little or no nutritional value, leading to labels such as \"empty calories.\" [...]there are readily available healthy drinks that can be substitutes, such as water, milk, and tea.
