Food marketing to children in the United States: Can industry voluntarily do the right thing for children's health?

Abstract:

:Food marketing is a major contributor to high rates of obesity and diet-related disease among children. Researchers, advocates, and policymakers have called for improvements in the nutrition quality of foods marketed to children to improve children's health. In the United States, for over 10 years, the food and beverage industry has responded with self-regulatory initiatives, touting the success of these efforts. However, public health researchers have documented very limited improvements. As a product of conference proceedings, we briefly summarize US self-regulation of food and beverage marketing to children, argue that reliance on industry self-regulation limits meaningful change, and explain why existing food companies cannot market truly healthy foods to children. After over a decade of self-regulation, industry continues to exploit loopholes and bombard children with marketing for foods that can negatively impact their health. Still, the political will to advocate for effective government regulation remains a challenge. Shifts in parents' attitudes toward supporting policies to protect children from food marketing and local government actions to improve the food environment are promising indicators of increasing demand for action. However, sustained and well-publicized research and advocacy are necessary to generate broader support to enact such policies at the state and federal level in order to effectively address this public health crisis.
