Samenvatting

Obesitas bij kinderen heeft epidemische vormen aangenomen.2 De belangrijkste oorzaken voor excessieve gewichtstoename bij kinderen zijn genetisch, endocrien bepaald en kan ontstaan onafhankelijk van andere ziekten.3 Nu is veronderstelling dat de consumptie van zoete koolzuurhoudende dranken bijdraagt aan overgewicht bij kinderen. Uit onderzoek is gebleken dat kinderen die regelmatig koolzuurhoudende zoete frisdrank drinken gemiddeld 10 procent hogere energie-inname hebben vergeleken met kinderen die deze frisdrank niet consumeren.4 In Engeland drinkt meer dan 70 procent van de adolescenten frequent koolzuurhoudende frisdrank.
