Tieners en effect waarschuwingslabels suikerhoudende drank

Teens are more than 15% less likely to say they would purchase sugary drinks that include health warning labels, according to a Perelman School of Medicine study.
The study is among the first to examine how warning labels on sugary drinks influence teens, and builds upon research published by the team earlier this year which showed that parents were less likely to select sugary beverages for their kids when labels warning about the dangers of added sugar – which can contribute to obesity, diabetes and tooth decay – were present. An article about the research is published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine (Nieuwsbericht University of Pennsylvania, 8 september 2016).
