Soft drinks taste good, but the calories count.J Pediatr. 2003; 142: 599-601Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (9) Google Scholar proposed that Americans “reduce the availability and limit portion sizes of sugar-sweetened drinks sold at school and provided at home.” In the study, 30 children 7 to 13 years of age acted as their own controls, collecting daily diet records and weighing food to estimate intake from a baseline period through 4 to 8 weeks of follow-up. Body mass index was measured regularly. The data showed that not only were those children with the highest intake of sweetened drinks consuming greater daily energy, but also that sweet drinks displaced milk from their diet. The resulting trade-off resulted in lower daily protein, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and vitamin A. The authors concluded that excessive sweetened-drink consumption associated with decreased milk intake may be one important risk factor for childhood obesity and nutrient deficiencies.1Mrdjenovic G.

In light of the accumulating evidence, Schwartz's recommendations to limit sweetened drinks would seem reasonable. But have we gone too far in making soft drinks the fall guy for obesity?Some think so. Subsequent letters to the editor, as well as press releases from representatives of the soft drink industry, disagreed with the conclusions of the authors of the study.3Sutherland L.A.

The respondents felt that the designation of sweetened drinks as a cause for such a complex, multi-factorial problem as obesity was simplistic. They cited declining physical activity and increasing television and screen time as etiologies with a greater base of research evidence than that for soft drinks. Likewise, frequency of fast food, extreme portion sizes, and other unbalanced patterns of food consumption have had an equal or greater impact than that of soft drinks. They stated that the data on the increase in soft drink consumption are contradictory. Despite several studies based on the USDA's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and the Continuing Food Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals methodologies that showed an increasing trend,6Ballew C.

In addition, they state that research has failed to confirm the displacement of milk intake with rising soft drink consumption. Ultimately, they cite evidence that consumption of carbonated soft drinks from vending machines at school is minimal, only 2.5 oz per week, certainly insufficient to account for the obesity crisis.3Sutherland L.A. Soft drinks and obesity.J Pediatr. 2004; 144: 554-557Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (2) Google ScholarMany of their objections are valid. Certainly, soft drinks are not the root cause of obesity. The healthcare community has convinced Americans that there is an obesity epidemic. Now the public wants health professionals to identify the villain. Finding a single culprit would be convenient, but it will not happen with obesity. This disease is wrapped in genetics and culture, behavior and psychology. It is important to recognize that even if soft drink consumption was eliminated through a zealous, latter-day prohibition movement, it is unlikely to eliminate obesity, given the many factors that contribute.14American Academy of Pediatrics, Committee on Nutrition Prevention of pediatric overweight and obesity.Pediatrics. 2003; 112: 424-430Crossref PubMed Scopus (1022) Google Scholar However, among those many factors, soft drinks have a prominent place. Although obesity prevention will require many interventions that affect all aspects of children's lives, curbing the current intake of sugar consumed in the form of sweetened drinks will be one of the most important strategies. The objections of the soft drink industry sidestep the intent of the recommendations being made by pediatricians. And in doing so, the industry may miss an opportunity to play a central role in helping to unravel childhood obesity.In a Crowded Field, Why Are Soft Drinks Singled Out?Far from picking on soft drinks as the sole cause for obesity, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has issued several policy statements on a broad array of issues surrounding childhood obesity. The AAP Committee on Nutrition statement on “The Prevention of Pediatric Overweight and Obesity” was issued in August 2003, addressing genetics, family dynamics and the home environment, recent societal changes, the decline in physical activity and concomitant rise in television viewing, as well as dietary factors that promote obesity.14American Academy of Pediatrics, Committee on Nutrition Prevention of pediatric overweight and obesity.Pediatrics. 2003; 112: 424-430Crossref PubMed Scopus (1022) Google Scholar Previously, the AAP Committee on Nutrition recommended a limitation on juice intake by babies to lessen the risk of overweight.15American Academy of Pediatrics The use and misuse of fruit juice in pediatrics.Pediatrics. 2001; 107: 1210-1213Crossref PubMed Scopus (72) Google Scholar In a clinical report on the prevention and treatment of diabetes type II, the AAP cited the role of the community in helping to prevent the advent of obesity-related diabetes through improved physical activity and nutrition, especially among high-risk populations.16Gahagan S.

American children over-consume foods that constitute the tip of the USDA Food Guide Pyramid, the section labeled “discretionary fats and sugars,” a term that connotes fats and sugars added to the diet by choice, not inherent in the foods themselves.9Guthrie J.F.

For a child consuming 1300 kcal per day, this represents only 6 teaspoons of added sugars, and for a teenager consuming 2800 kcal per day, 18 teaspoons of sugars, excluding sugars inherent in fruits and dairy products. Such a modest amount can be consumed at a single sitting in the form of a large soft drink at a fast food restaurant. Daily adolescent intake of sweetened soft drinks averages nearly two 12-oz servings per day, or the equivalent of 20 teaspoons of sugar and 300 kcal.10Harnack L. Stang J. Story M.

Soft drink consumption increased 57% as obesity rose 9.3%. When diet, activity, television, and anthropometrics were controlled for, each soft drink consumed daily was shown to increase the child's risk of obesity by 60%. In the second study, James et al31James J. Thomas P. Cavan D. Kerr D. Preventing childhood obesity by reducing consumption of carbonated drinks: cluster randomised controlled trial.BMJ. 2004; 328: 1237-1241Crossref PubMed Google Scholar sought to determine whether reducing consumption of carbonated beverages had an impact on weight gain. The authors followed 644 children 7 to 11 years of age for 1 school year. Using a focused intervention program meant to promote alternate drinks, the control group increased 0.2 glasses (50 mL), whereas the treatment group decreased carbonated soft drink intake by 0.6 glasses per day (150 mL). At 12 months, the percent overweight and obese children among controls increased by 7.5% but decreased by 0.2% in the intervention group. Eliminating just a few ounces of sweetened drinks is likely to affect the risk of childhood obesity substantially. Investigators suggest that small alterations in daily energy consumption may have significant implications. Even small amounts of sweetened drinks consumed at home, at school, and in the community may have a cumulative effect. Hill and colleagues32Hill J.O. Wyatt H.R. Reed G.W. Peters J.C. Obesity and the environment: where do we go from here?.Science. 2003; 299: 853-855Crossref PubMed Scopus (1656) Google Scholar calculated that altering the energy gap by only 0.42 MJ/day (100 kcal/day)—which, ironically, is the equivalent of one 8-oz serving of sweetened soft drink—would prevent excessive weight gain in most Americans.

The data were weighted quarterly to be representative of the US population, but it was not a randomized sampling. The study group was further biased by self-selection. Instructions were given in writing and not reviewed with participants by trained research assistants using multiple pass methodologies through onsite or phone contact, as was the case for larger, randomized national surveys.

No study to date has examined the effects on student consumption patterns of introducing a soft drink contract into a school district. But current levels of consumption suggest that students do not need further encouragement.Are There Nutritional Consequences from Over-consumption of Soft Drinks?Besides excess sugar consumption as a source of unnecessary daily energy, the AAP COSH also considered the corresponding decline in milk consumption as soft drink intake increased and its effect on the daily nutrient profile of children. Milk is a nutrient-dense food. Its elimination from a child's diet is not without consequences. Risk of future osteoporosis and bone fractures because of inadequate daily calcium is only the most prominent clinical issue associated with declining milk consumption. Based on National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from 1999-2000, several nutrients have become “problem nutrients” because of consumption rates falling below the daily recommended intakes.33Institute of Medicine Dietary Reference Intakes. Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Vitamin D, and Fluoride.
