Description: Data for cities, communities, and City of Los Angeles Council Districts were generated using a small area estimation method which combined the survey data with population benchmark data (2022 population estimates for Los Angeles County) and neighborhood characteristics data (e.g., U.S. Census Bureau, 2017-2021 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates). This indicator is based on caregiver report and includes children who drink at least one sugar sweetened beverage daily. Sugar sweetened beverages include sodas, such as Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, or Sprite, or sweetened drinks, such as Gatorade, Red Bull, or Sunny Delight. Drinks NOT included are diet sodas, sugar-free drinks, or 100% fruit juice.
Sugar sweetened beverages or sugary drinks are leading sources of added sugars in the American diet. Frequently drinking sugar sweetened beverages is associated with weight gain, obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and kidney diseases, among other conditions. Cities and communities can take an active role in limiting sugar sweetened beverage consumption by promoting health education and awareness, adopting policies such as additional taxes on sugar sweetened beverage purchases, and by supporting healthy food retail.
