Intervention
Sugar Sweetened Beverage (SSB) tax

SSB taxation is a global strategy to reduce consumption of unhealthy beverages and generate revenue for public health programs, especially in low- and middle-income countries.

Limitations

  • Lack of research-based evidence on SSB taxations in Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC)
  • Possibility of individuals reverting to older consumption behaviors over time
  • Potential shift in consumption towards non-taxed beverages that may still be detrimental to health
