Labelling changes in response to a tax on sugar-sweetened beverages, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Abstract:

Objective:To evaluate the changes in sugar and energy labelling of carbonated sugar-sweetened soft drinks after the implementation of a tax on sugar-sweetened drinks in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Methods:We visited nine main supermarkets before (May 2014) and after (April 2018) the tax came into effect and obtained data from product packaging and nutrition information panels of carbonated sugar-sweetened soft drinks. We used the paired t-test to assess differences in sugar and energy content of the same products between 2014 and 2018. Findings:We obtained data from 166 products in 2014 and 464 products in 2018, of which 83 products were the same in both years. Large variations in stated sugar content were found between the different carbonated sugar-sweetened soft drinks in both 2014 and 2018 for all products and for the 83 products. The mean sugar content of the 83 products decreased by 42% between 2014 and 2018, from 9.1 g/100 mL (standard deviation, SD: 3.3) to 5.3 g/100 mL (SD: 3.5; P < 0.001). The mean energy content decreased by 40%, from 38 kcal/100 mL (SD: 13) in 2014 to 23 kcal/100 mL (SD: 15) in 2018 (P < 0.001). Conclusion:The significant decreases in the labelling of sugar and energy content of carbonated sugar-sweetened soft drinks after the levy came into effect suggest this tax has been effective. The sugar content of drinks still varied considerably in 2018, suggesting further reductions in sugar content of these drinks is possible. The levy thresholds should be reduced and the tax increased to drive further reformulation of soft drinks to reduce their sugar content. Objectif:Évaluer les changements dans l'étiquetage des boissons gazeuses sucrées non alcoolisées, sur le plan de la teneur en sucre et de la valeur énergétique, après l'instauration d'une taxe sur les boissons sucrées au Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d'Irlande du Nord. Méthodes:Nous nous sommes rendus dans neuf grands supermarchés avant (mai 2014) et après (avril 2018) l'entrée en vigueur de la taxe et avons recueilli des données sur les emballages et les encadrés d'information nutritionnelle de boissons gazeuses sucrées non alcoolisées. Nous avons eu recours à un test t d'échantillons appariés pour évaluer les différences au niveau de la teneur en sucre et de la valeur énergétique des mêmes produits entre 2014 et 2018. Résultats:Nous avons obtenu des données sur 166 produits en 2014 et sur 464 produits en 2018, parmi lesquels 83 produits identiques sur ces deux années. S'agissant de la teneur en sucre indiquée, de gros écarts ont été observés entre les différentes boissons gazeuses sucrées non alcoolisées, aussi bien en 2014 qu'en 2018, pour l'ensemble des produits et pour les 83 produits semblables. La teneur en sucre moyenne des 83 produits a diminué de 42% entre 2014 et 2018, passant de 9,1 g/100 mL (écart type, ET: 3,3) à 5,3 g/100 mL (ET: 3,5; P < 0,001). La valeur énergétique moyenne a diminué de 40%, passant de 38 kcal/100 mL (ET: 13) en 2014 à 23 kcal/100 mL (ET: 15) en 2018 (P < 0,001). Conclusion:La diminution notable, sur les étiquettes, de la teneur en sucre et de la valeur énergétique des boissons gazeuses sucrées non alcoolisées après l'entrée en vigueur de la taxe laisse penser que celle-ci a été efficace. La teneur en sucre des boissons variait encore considérablement en 2018, ce qui laisse penser qu'il est possible de la réduire encore davantage. Les seuils d'application de la taxe devraient être abaissés et cette dernière augmentée afin d'encourager la reformulation des boissons non alcoolisées dans le but de réduire leur teneur en sucre. Objetivo:Evaluar los cambios en el etiquetado sobre el azúcar y la energía de las bebidas gaseosas endulzadas con azúcar después de la aplicación de un impuesto sobre las bebidas endulzadas con azúcar en el Reino Unido de Gran Bretaña e Irlanda del Norte. Métodos:Se visitaron nueve supermercados principales antes (mayo de 2014) y después (abril de 2018) de que el impuesto entrara en vigor y se obtuvieron datos de los envases de los productos y de los paneles de información nutricional de las bebidas gaseosas endulzadas con azúcar. Se utilizó la prueba t pareada para evaluar las diferencias en el contenido de azúcar y energía de los mismos productos entre 2014 y 2018. Resultados:Se obtuvieron datos de 166 productos de 2014 y 464 de 2018, de los cuales 83 productos fueron los mismos en ambos años. Se encontraron grandes variaciones en el contenido de azúcar declarado entre las diferentes bebidas gaseosas endulzadas con azúcar en 2014 y 2018 para todos los productos y para los 83 productos. El contenido promedio de azúcar de los 83 productos disminuyó en un 42 % entre 2014 y 2018, de 9,1 g/100 ml (desviación estándar, DE: 3,3) a 5,3 g/100 ml (DE: 3,5; P < 0,001). El contenido promedio de energía disminuyó en un 40 %, de 38 kcal/100 ml (SD: 13) en 2014 a 23 kcal/100 ml (SD: 15) en 2018 (P < 0,001). Conclusión:Las importantes reducciones en el etiquetado sobre el contenido de azúcar y de energía de las bebidas gaseosas endulzadas con azúcar después de que la tasa entrara en vigor sugieren que este impuesto ha sido efectivo. El contenido de azúcar en las bebidas todavía varía considerablemente en 2018, lo que sugiere que es posible reducir aún más el contenido de azúcar de dichas bebidas. Los umbrales de la tasa deben reducirse y el impuesto debe aumentarse para impulsar una nueva reformulación de las bebidas gaseosas a fin de reducir su contenido de azúcar. الغرض:تقييم التغييرات في السكر وملصقات الطاقة الخاصة بالمشروبات الغازية المحلاة بالسكر بعد تطبيق الضريبة على المشروبات المحلاة بالسكر في المملكة المتحدة لبريطانيا العظمى وأيرلندا الشمالية. الطريقة:قم بزيارة تسعة من محال السوبر ماركت الرئيسية قبل (مايو/أيار 2014) وبعد (أبريل/نيسان 2018) أن أصبحت الضريبة سارية المفعول، وحصلنا على بيانات من عبوات المنتجات، وقوائم معلومات التغذية، الخاصة بالمشروبات الغازية المحلاة بالسكر. قمنا بالاستعانة باختبار t -test المقترن لتقييم الاختلافات في محتوى السكر والطاقة لنفس المنتجات بين عامي 2014 و 2018. النتائج:لقد حصلنا على بيانات من 166 منتجاً في عام 2014، و464 منتجاً في عام 2018، منها 83 منتجاً كانت هي نفسها في كلتا السنتين. تم اكتشاف اختلافات كبيرة في محتوى السكر المُشار إليه بين مختلف المشروبات الغازية المحلاة بالسكر في كل من 2014 و2018 لكل المنتجات، ولـ 83 منتجاً. انخفض متوسط ​​محتوى السكر في 83 منتجاً بنسبة 42% بين عامي 2014 و2018، من 9.1 جم/100 مل (الانحراف المعياري: 3.3) إلى 5.3 جرام/100 مل (الانحراف المعياري: 3.5؛ نسبة الاحتمال أقل من 0.001). انخفض متوسط ​​محتوى الطاقة بنسبة 40%، من 38 كيلو كالوري/100 مل (الانحراف المعياري: 13) في عام 2014 إلى 23 كيلو كالوري إلى 5.3 جرام/100 مل (الانحراف المعياري: 15) في 2018 ( نسبة الاحتمال أقل من 0.001). الاستنتاج:تشير الانخفاضات الكبيرة في ملصقات محتوى السكر والطاقة في المشروبات الغازية المحلاة بالسكر بعد بدء سريان الضريبة إلى أن هذه الضريبة كانت فعالة. لا يزال محتوى السكر في المشروبات متنوعاً بشكل كبير في عام 2018، مما يشير إلى أن إجراء المزيد من التخفيضات في محتوى السكر بهذه المشروبات أمراً ممكناً. يجب تقليل حدود الضريبة وزيادة الضريبة، لتحفيز المزيد من إعادة الصياغة للمشروبات الغازية بهدف تقليل محتواها من السكر. 目的:旨在评估大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国对含糖饮料推行征税后,含糖碳酸软饮料产品标签上糖份和能量数据的变化。. 方法:我们在该税收政策推行前(2014 年 5 月)与正式生效后(2018 年 4 月)分别走访了 9 个大型超市,并从含糖碳酸软饮料的产品包装及其营养信息表中获取了数据。我们使用配对 t 检验评估了 2014 年和 2018 年相同产品中糖份和能量含量的差异。. 结果:我们从 2014 年售卖的 166 种产品和 2018 年售卖的 464 种产品中获取数据,其中完全相同的产品有 83 种。。2014 年和 2018 年的数据均显示,包括这 83 种相同产品在内的所有不同含糖碳酸软饮料产品之间的含糖量差异很大。2014 年至 2018 年期间,这 83 种产品的平均含糖量下降了 42%,从 9.1 克/100 毫升(标准差:3.3)降至 5.3 克/100 毫升(标准差:3.5;P < 0.001)。平均能量含量下降了 40%,从 2014 年的 38 千卡/100 毫升(标准差:13)降至 2018 年的 23 千卡/100 毫升(标准差:15) (P < 0.001)。. 结论:该税收政策正式生效后,含糖碳酸软饮料标签上显示的糖份和能量含量显著降低,这一税收政策是有效的。2018 年,各种含糖饮料之间的含糖量仍然相差很大,这表明这些饮料的含糖量仍有继续下降的可能。应降低税收起征点,并增加税收,以推动行业内针对软饮料的进一步配方调整,从而降低含糖量。. Цель:Оценка изменений в информации о содержании сахара и энергетической ценности подслащенных безалкогольных напитков после ввода налога на подслащенные напитки в Соединенном Королевстве Великобритании и Северной Ирландии. Методы:Авторы посетили девять крупных супермаркетов до введения налога (в мае 2014 г.) и после его вступления в силу (в апреле 2018 г.) и получили данные о том, какая информация содержится на упаковке продукции и на участках этикеток, отведенных под информацию о питательной ценности газированных подслащенных безалкогольных напитков. Авторы использовали парный t-критерий для определения разницы в указании содержания сахара и энергетической ценности одних и тех же продуктов в период между 2014 и 2018 годами. Результаты:Были получены данные по 166 продуктам в 2014 году и 464 продуктам в 2018 году, из которых 83 продукта совпадали. Значительные вариации в указании содержания сахара были обнаружены у различных газированных подслащенных безалкогольных напитков и в 2014 году, и в 2018 году как в целом, так и для 83 одинаковых продуктов. Среднее содержание сахара в 83 продуктах упало за период с 2014 по 2018 год на 42%: с 9,1 г/100 мл (среднеквадратичное отклонение, СО: 3,3) до 5,3 г/100 мл (СО: 3,5; P < 0,001). Средняя энергетическая ценность снизилась на 40%: с 38 ккал/100 мл (СО: 13) в 2014 году до 23 ккал/100 мл (СО: 15) в 2018 году (P < 0,001). Вывод:Значительное снижение содержания сахара и энергетической ценности газированных подслащенных безалкогольных напитков после ввода налога на сахар, прослеживаемое по данным на этикетках товаров, позволяет предположить, что введение налога оказалось эффективным. В 2018 году содержание сахара в напитках сильно варьировалось, что позволяет предположить, что возможно дальнейшее снижение уровня сахара в этих напитках. Необходимо снизить пороги налогообложения и увеличить налог, чтобы содействовать дальнейшему изменению состава напитков для снижения содержания сахара.
