    Recently, the "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022)" (hereinafter referred to as the Guidelines) was released


    Among them, the new version of the guideline has been updated to eight basic principles, adding "can cook, choose, read labels" and "eating regularly, drinking enough water", etc.


    Sugar control, starting from sugar-sweetened beverages In the new guideline, two of the eight basic principles contain specific requirements for "do not drink or drink less sugar-sweetened beverages"


    At the same time, the guidelines put special emphasis on reducing the intake of sugar-sweetened beverages


    According to the latest data released by the Dietary Guidelines, the overweight and obesity rate of children and adolescents aged 6-17 has reached 19.


    Therefore, reducing the consumption of sugar-free beverages and replacing them with boiled water, tea, and sugar-free beverages on the market is a "big step" towards a balanced diet in the East through sugar control


    Learning to read labels is a "good helper" for sugar control.


    To learn to read food labels, you need to have a "ruler" in your heart to measure whether the food is nutritious and healthy


    Chen Junshi, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, has publicly stated that it will be a trend for the beverage industry to replace sugar with sweeteners.
