Frequent consumption of soft drinks (>3 days/week) among 6-9-year-olds
Across the WHO European Region, children's sugar intake is too high, with children commonly consuming more than 10% of their daily calories from added sugars (21), and soft drinks are a major contributor. High intake of sugar-sweetened drinks is associated with a greater risk of weight gain and obesity (22,23) and has a detrimental impact on dental health (24).
