“…This is higher than the World Health Organization's recommended limit of added sugar intake at 10% or less (10). SSB alone account for 70% of added sugar in Mexico (9.8% of total energy intake on average (11), and therefore SSB is a logical target for lowering added sugar intake.…”

In the first year of a 1 peso per liter excise tax on sugar-sweetened beverages, there was a 6% reduction in purchases of taxed beverages in Mexico. This paper estimates changes in beverage purchases two years after tax implementation. We used household store purchase data for 6,645 households from January 2012 to December 2015. Changes in purchases of taxed and untaxed beverages in the post-tax years were estimated using two separate models: comparing 2014 with predicted volumes (counterfactual) based on pre-tax (2012-2013) trends, and comparing 2015 with the same counterfactual. Purchases of taxed beverages decreased by 8.2% over the two years on average (-5.5% in 2014; -9.7% in 2015). The lowest socioeconomic group had the largest decreases in taxed beverages in both years. Untaxed beverage purchases increased 2.1% in the post-tax period. In Mexico, lower purchases of taxed beverages was sustained and grew in the second year of the tax.

“…Population dietary intake is poorly aligned with national dietary guidelines designed to prevent the development of obesity . Unhealthy foods, defined as foods and beverages generally higher in energy, saturated fat, added sugar and/or sodium, are overconsumed across the globe . These unhealthy foods, including cakes, biscuits, processed meats, salty snacks and sugar‐sweetened beverages, contribute between 27% and 40% of Australian 2‐ to 13‐year‐old children's total energy intake .…”

How to reduce parental provision of unhealthy foods to 3‐ to 8‐year‐old children in the home environment? A systematic review utilizing the Behaviour Change Wheel framework

Existing interventions achieving small reductions in unhealthy food intake are homogenous in approach. There is potential to utilize untapped behaviour change techniques, through comprehensive intervention design and behavioural analysis guided by the Behaviour Change Wheel. Interventions targeting opportunity through persuasion, modelling or environmental restructuring, and using different policy categories are urgently needed to provide an evidence base to inform policy and practice.

“…[4][5][6][7][8][9] En México, el consumo de bebidas azucaradas contribuye con 9.8% de la ingesta energética y el consumo de alimentos no básicos con alto contenido de azúcar y grasa saturada como botanas, postres, dulces, galletas, pan dulce y azúcares contribuye con 16% de la ingesta energética. 10 La contribución de estas bebidas y alimentos es menor en zonas rurales que en urbanas (-1.5 y -2.4 puntos porcentuales, respectivamente). Sin embargo, aún el consumo en zonas rurales es excesivo si se considera que un consumo moderado no rebasaría una contribución energética de 3 y 10% para bebidas azucaradas y alimentos no básicos, respectivamente.…”

Objetivo. Analizar cambios en precios asociados con la implementación de los impuestos a bebidas azucaradas y alimentos no básicos con alta densidad energética implementados en 2014. Material y métodos. Se recolectaron precios en áreas rurales y semiurbanas en diciembre de 2013, y abril y diciembre de 2014. Se analizaron cambios en precios por tipo de bebidas y alimento con impuesto usando modelos de efectos fijos y estratificando por región, tipo de establecimiento y tamaño de presentación. Resultados. El impuesto a bebidas azucaradas no pasó por completo a los precios; en promedio, los precios aumentaron 0.73 pesos por litro. Para alimentos con alta densidad energética, el impuesto pasó igual o mayor al monto del impuesto para galletas, barras de cereal y cereales de caja. Conclusión. El potencial efecto de los impuestos en consumo podría ser menor al esperado en áreas rurales dado que los impuestos no pasaron por completo a los precios.
