ROBELTO A., Gloria E. et al. Determinants of the Consumption of Sugary Drinks and Intervention Strategies Related to their Intake: Scoping Review. Univ. Med. [online]. 2022, vol.63, n.1, pp.124-138. Epub Dec 30, 2021. ISSN 0041-9095. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.umed63-1.azuc.
Introduction:
The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) has been reported as a public health problem due to its relation with the appearance of chronic noncommunicable diseases.
Objective:
To analyze determining factors in the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and the interventions carried out to reduce its consumption.
Method:
A review article based on the consultation of nine databases, included articles published during the period 2010-2021, which were consolidated in a matrix in Excel. The results were analyzed on the basis of 4 levels of analysis: 4 categories of determinants and 1 of interventions.
Results:
79 articles were analyzed. 19 results from Latin America were obtained from Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Peru. At the Colombian level 12 articles were found, in addition to the 9 articles conducted at Bogotá by educational institutions, and 3 more at the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana.
Conclusions:
The main determinants of SSB consumption were: Low income, being an adolescent or young adult, male, limited knowledge about the relationship between SSB and health and availability of foods with high caloric density, among others. The most promising interventions are the SSB tax and front labeling.
Keywords : sugar-sweetened beverages; public health; chronic diseases; interventions and consumption.
