Teng AM, et al. - Researchers conducted a systematic review of real-world sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) tax evaluations and analyzed the overall impact on beverage purchases and dietary intake. Up to June 2018, Medline, EconLit, Google Scholar and Scopus databases were searched. According to findings, the equivalent of a 10% SSB tax was linked to an average decline in beverage purchases and dietary intake of 10.0% with sizable heterogeneity between outcomes. In addition, the equivalent of a 10% SSB tax was linked to a nonsignificant 1.9% increase in total consumption of untaxed beverages (eg, water). Overall, they concluded that SSB taxes introduced in jurisdictions around the world seem to have been effective in lowering SSB purchases and dietary intake based on real-world evaluations.
