Abstract

There has been a growing trend globally in the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) amongst children. Consumption of SSBs, particularly carbonated soft drinks, may be one of the key contributor to the epidemic of overweight and obesity. We searched consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in 360 students of the 1st (n=210) and the 6th (n=150) courses of Krasnoyarsk State Medical University (247 girls and 113 boys), using questionnaires. About 27.7±2.4% of students regularly (daily or at least 2-3 times a week) consumed sugar-sweetened beverages, despite the fact that were well informed about the diseases associated with their consumption. The most popular among the respondents was a bottle of 0.5 liter, it was preferred by 44.1±2.6% of students. Among the students of 6th year there were more respondents who didn't consume (22.6±2.9) and buy (30.6±3.8%) sweet carbonated drinks, compared to the 1st-year students (14.3±2.4 and 19±3.2%, respectively). Most popular was SSBs intake among boys, 9.7±2.7% of them used it every day and 23±4.0% - 2-3 times per week, compared with 3.2±1.1 and 12.1±2.1% of girls, respectively. Boys were also more likely (42.4±4.6%) to purchase bottles of 1 liter or more. More rigorously conducted, quality randomized clinical trials in this area are required to aid the design of effective interventions that can be implemented by health professionals as one of the elements of the prevention of childhood and adolescent obesity.
