in this commentary, we argue for the implementation of a sugar-sweetened beverage (ssb) tax as a tool to help address the global obesity and diabetes epidemics. consumption of ssbs has increased exponentially over the last several decades, a trend that has been an important contributor to the obesity and diabetes epidemics. prior evidence demonstrates that a ssb tax will likely decrease ssb con...
