Category The category refers to the type of beverage. This study included: • regular soda (i.e., carbonated, sweetened soft drinks or pop); • sports drinks (i.e., non-carbonated, sweetened drinks marketed as appropriate to consume during physical activity) • fruit drinks (i.e., fruit-flavored, non-carbonated drinks with less than 50% fruit juice) • diet soda (i.e., low or no-calorie carbonated soft drinks with artificial sweeteners) • 100% juice (i.e., beverages that contain only pure fruit juice, with no added sugar or non-caloric sweeteners) Brand The brand refers to the marketing unit. • regular soda (i.e., Coke, Pepsi, Sprite, Canada Dry Ginger Ale); • sports drinks (i.e., Gatorade, PowerAde) • fruit drinks (i.e., Hawaiian Punch, SunnyD, Capri Sun fruit punch) • diet soda (i.e., Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi, Diet Mountain Dew) • 100% juice (i.e., Tropicana Orange Juice, Welch’s Grape Juice) All ACV is similar conceptually to a z-score because it allows values from Commodity different scales to be standardized and then compared to each other. Volume This is useful in marketing research because the volume of sales for a (ACV) product in smaller stores can be compared to the volume of sales for the same product in larger stores. In this case, the ACV was calculated by taking the dollar amount sold of a beverage brand and category as a proportion of $1 million in total dollar sales in the supermarket as a whole. © 2017 American Medical Association.

That's 350 to 475 empty calories that most people can't afford. A growing body of research suggests that added sugars or su gar-sweetened beverages boost the risk of disease. "We know that sugars contribute to obesity, which in turn increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes," says Linda Van Horn, who chairs the American Heart Association's Nutrition Committee. A new report from the heart association urges Americans to slash their sugar intake. The new targets: only 100 calories a day of added sugars for women and 150 calories a day for men.

  • Childhood Obesity Resource
    Section 1 Clinical Assessment, Evaluation, and Diagnosis B.M.I. Chart 1A Header Childhood Obesity Resource Source: i Introduction Project Background This project was made possible through a grant from Covidien. The Obesity Society partnered with the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) to develop a resource that would provide the basis for a toolkit for Community Health Centers (CHCs) with information on childhood obesity treatment and prevention for providers, patients, families, and community stakeholders. This is the Beta version of the kit that will be used to evaluate its effectiveness in the community and in selected Community Health Centers. About Childhood Obesity In the past 30 years, the occurrence of overweight in children has doubled and it is now estimated that one in five children in the US is overweight. Increases in the prevalence of overweight are also being seen in younger children, including preschoolers. Prevalence of overweight is especially higher among certain populations such as Hispanic, African American and Native Americans where some studies indicate prevalence of >85th percentile of 35-40%. Also, while more children are becoming overweight, the heaviest children are getting even heavier. As a result, childhood overweight is regarded as the most common prevalent nutritional disorder of US children and adolescents, and one of the most common problems seen by pediatricians. About Community Health Centers The National Association of Community Health Centers was formed by and for community-based health center programs. NACHC programs and services are designed to assist health centers in navigating today’s complex and constantly changing health care environment.

    Rethink Your Drink: Sugary Drinks, Obesity, and Efforts in Illinois Illinois Alliance to Prevent Obesity 2017 Learning Objectives • Understand how sugary drinks impact health • Share effective strategies for reducing sugary drink consumption through policy, systems, environmental changes and education • Describe current efforts underway in Illinois to invest in prevention of obesity-related diseases related to sugary drink consumption 2 The Facts: OBESITY & CHRONIC DISEASE 3 Obesity in the US In the U.S., 1/3 of children and 2/3 of adults are overweight or obese. By 2030, 42 % of all adults will be obese, costing an additional $550 billion in health care expenditures. 4 Obesity in Illinois • In 1995, Illinois’ obesity rate was 15.5%; today it has nearly doubled. • Nearly two-thirds (64%) of all Illinoisans are overweight or obese. • Illinois is one of the top ten states for obese/overweight adolescents (ages 10-17 years). • The obesity rate for African Americans is 41%, compared to 26.6% among Non-Hispanic Whites in Illinois. 5 Obesity is linked to early death and over thirty diseases including: -Type 2 Diabetes -Cancer -Cardiovascular Disease -Arthritis -Asthma -Poor Diet Quality -Hypertension -Sleep Apnea -Osteoporosis -Depression 6 Obesity is Expensive • Obesity costs the Illinois health care system $6.3 billion per year – including over $1 billion to Medicaid. • If nothing changes, experts predict the cost of obesity could increase to $14 billion or more a year by 2018; $27 billion by 2030. 7 • Obese people suffer more injuries and disabilities and have more non-productive work days, creating loss of productivity. • For the first time in American history, the current generation may have a shorter lifespan than their parents.
