Simulating the impact of sugar-sweetened beverage warning labels in three cities.
A number of locations have been considering sugar-sweetened beverage point-of-purchase warning label policies to help address rising adolescent overweight and obesity prevalence. This study exploring the impact of such policies concluded that agent-based simulations showed how warning labels may decrease overweight and obesity prevalence in a variety of circumstances with label efficacy and literacy rate identified as potential drivers.
