Some are considering soda taxes of their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Soda taxes are going to be spreading like wildfire,” said Harold Goldstein, executive director of the Davis-based nonprofit Public Health Advocates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city of Berkeley, also in Alameda County, passed the \u003ca href=\"http://californiahealthline.org/news/is-berkeleys-new-soda-tax-a-tipping-point-or-an-outlie/\" target=\"_blank\">nation’s first such tax \u003c/a>in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, the tax, which takes effect Jan. 1, 2018, is expected to raise up to $15 million annually. Meanwhile in the smaller city of Albany, the tax took effect immediately and is projected to garner $223,000 each year. In Oakland, the penny-per-ounce tax on the distribution of sugar-sweetened beverages is projected to bring in up to $8 million each year, some of which will be used for health education and prevention programs in schools and the community. It takes effect in July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We felt this was very important because of the dental needs we see within our patient population,” Le said. “We know there’s a strong link between tooth decay and sugary beverages.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The link between sugary beverages and obesity, diabetes and tooth decay is well-established. People who drink one or two cans of sugary drinks per day have a 26 percent greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes, according to one \u003ca href=\"https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/sugary-drinks-fact-sheet/\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> by the Harvard School of Public Health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A separate study found that for every 12-ounce soda consumed by a child each day, their odds of becoming obese increased by \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11229668\" target=\"_blank\">60 percent\u003c/a>. Soda also has been tied to dental erosion which can lead to cavities, according a \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2676420/\" target=\"_blank\">2009 study\u003c/a>. The most frequent sources of erosive acids are soft drinks like cola, the study found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a report earlier this this year, an oversight commission criticized the state’s dental program for the poor, finding that California is seeing an “epidemic of tooth disease in which toddlers by the thousands have mouthfuls of cavities, children and adults are plagued with toothaches.” This is made worse when families struggle to get an appointment with a dentist, the report said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Oakland and the rest of Alameda County, \u003ca href=\"http://www.acgov.org/board/bos_calendar/documents/DocsAgendaReg_7_14_14/HEALTH%20CARE%20SERVICES/Regular%20Calendar/Alameda_County_Report_Exec_Summ_Obesity_Rpt.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">one third\u003c/a> of children consume one or more sugary drinks a day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland’s city council will establish a community advisory board to oversee the distribution of soda tax money, and local health advocates want to make sure they’re well-represented, Le said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://khn.org/news/soda-taxes-gaining-steam-or-getting-steamrolled/\" target=\"_blank\">Goldstein\u003c/a> said the fact that measures recently passed in all three Bay Area cities by a notable margin — in Oakland the tax was approved with 61 percent of the vote — shows that Californians grasp the harmful effects of sugary drinks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soda taxes, he said, are significant because they raise money to be used in the fight against obesity and other chronic conditions, and they reduce the consumption of sugary drinks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Berkeley’s low-income neighborhoods, the consumption of soda and other sweetened beverages decreased by 21 percent in the months after the 2014 tax began, according to a \u003ca href=\"http://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/abs/10.2105/AJPH.2016.303362\" target=\"_blank\">UC Berkeley study\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study also showed a 63 percent increase in the consumption of bottled or tap water. It is not clear whether these results are due to the higher retail prices of sugary drinks or to the increased awareness on the health effects associated with the beverages, the study notes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein said similar outcomes can be expected in Oakland, San Francisco and Albany, as well as in Boulder, Colo., where voters also passed a similar tax in November. This drives up the total number of cities with soda taxes to six — Philadelphia passed a 1.5 cents-per-ounce tax in June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Beverage Association, which has lobbied heavily against soda taxes nationwide, doesn’t see a movement. Spokeswoman Lauren Kane said that \u003ca href=\"http://www.reuters.com/article/us-beverages-sodatax-bloomberg-idUSKCN0Z3275\" target=\"_blank\">43 soda tax proposals have been rejected \u003c/a>since 2008.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The association will continue to focus on reducing calories and sugar in beverages, Kane said.

Meanwhile in the smaller city of Albany, the tax took effect immediately and is projected to garner $223,000 each year. In Oakland, the penny-per-ounce tax on the distribution of sugar-sweetened beverages is projected to bring in up to $8 million each year, some of which will be used for health education and prevention programs in schools and the community.

People who drink one or two cans of sugary drinks per day have a 26 percent greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes, according to one \u003ca href=\"https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/sugary-drinks-fact-sheet/\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> by the Harvard School of Public Health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A separate study found that for every 12-ounce soda consumed by a child each day, their odds of becoming obese increased by \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11229668\" target=\"_blank\">60 percent\u003c/a>. Soda also has been tied to dental erosion which can lead to cavities, according a \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2676420/\" target=\"_blank\">2009 study\u003c/a>. The most frequent sources of erosive acids are soft drinks like cola, the study found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a report earlier this this year, an oversight commission criticized the state’s dental program for the poor, finding that California is seeing an “epidemic of tooth disease in which toddlers by the thousands have mouthfuls of cavities, children and adults are plagued with toothaches.” This is made worse when families struggle to get an appointment with a dentist, the report said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Oakland and the rest of Alameda County, \u003ca href=\"http://www.acgov.org/board/bos_calendar/documents/DocsAgendaReg_7_14_14/HEALTH%20CARE%20SERVICES/Regular%20Calendar/Alameda_County_Report_Exec_Summ_Obesity_Rpt.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">one third\u003c/a> of children consume one or more sugary drinks a day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland’s city council will establish a community advisory board to oversee the distribution of soda tax money, and local health advocates want to make sure they’re well-represented, Le said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://khn.org/news/soda-taxes-gaining-steam-or-getting-steamrolled/\" target=\"_blank\">Goldstein\u003c/a> said the fact that measures recently passed in all three Bay Area cities by a notable margin — in Oakland the tax was approved with 61 percent of the vote — shows that Californians grasp the harmful effects of sugary drinks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soda taxes, he said, are significant because they raise money to be used in the fight against obesity and other chronic conditions, and they reduce the consumption of sugary drinks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Berkeley’s low-income neighborhoods, the consumption of soda and other sweetened beverages decreased by 21 percent in the months after the 2014 tax began, according to a \u003ca href=\"http://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/abs/10.2105/AJPH.2016.303362\" target=\"_blank\">UC Berkeley study\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study also showed a 63 percent increase in the consumption of bottled or tap water. It is not clear whether these results are due to the higher retail prices of sugary drinks or to the increased awareness on the health effects associated with the beverages, the study notes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein said similar outcomes can be expected in Oakland, San Francisco and Albany, as well as in Boulder, Colo., where voters also passed a similar tax in November. This drives up the total number of cities with soda taxes to six — Philadelphia passed a 1.5 cents-per-ounce tax in June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Beverage Association, which has lobbied heavily against soda taxes nationwide, doesn’t see a movement.

Researchers surveyed parents of 1,333 U.S. children each month during the first year of life on sugar-sweetened beverage intake and again when the children were 6-years-old. They assessed the children for obesity prevalence, and researchers corrected for factors including the mother's age, race or ethnicity of the children, education level, and breast-feeding duration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What babies eat can influence their taste preferences going forward, including leading to preferences for sweet-tasting foods and beverages throughout their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when parents know sugary drinks are bad, many of the drinks parents assume are not sugar-sweetened may well have often significant amounts of added sugar. This can include drinks that are labeled juice, but are not 100 percent fruit juice. So-called \"energy\" or \"sports\" drinks \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/08/06/sports-energy-drinks-as-unhealthful-as-soda-study-says/\" target=\"_blank\">may also be high in sugar\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re doing a lousy job of teaching or convincing parents about sugar-sweetened beverages,” said Dr. Paul Chung in response to an email. He is chief of general pediatrics at the UCLA School of Medicine and was not affiliated with either study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents should be making the immediate gratification of sugar-sweetened drinks less immediate and more inconvenient, he said. “Remove all sugar-sweetened beverages from the house; have filtered refrigerated tap water available at all times, and have family rules against ordering drinks other than water when eating out,” Chung said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, limiting exposure can be hard for parents and children alike. The bigger task, Chung said, “is trying to figure out how to help families do something that doesn’t come naturally to anyone, which is to actively deny themselves and their children pretty reliable immediate gratification.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are clearly failing to individually educate and persuade,\" he said. \"Policy options with real teeth really do need to be considered,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chung outlined several policy approaches to decrease or restrict sugar-sweetened beverage consumption. One option includes taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages, as has been proposed in\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/09/02/berkeley-city-council-puts-soda-tax-on-november-ballot/\" target=\"_blank\"> Berkeley\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/07/23/san-francisco-supervisors-put-soda-tax-on-ballot/\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco\u003c/a>. Another is warning labels on sugar-sweetened beverages. A bill to require labels \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/04/29/soda-labeling-bill-on-hold-over-costs-at-california-senate/\" target=\"_blank\">failed in California\u003c/a> earlier this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other options, Chung said, include providing water at schools and public places in hopes of displacing sugar-sweetened beverage consumption. Even more broadly, neighborhood redesign to emphasize healthier living is growing in popularity. But money and broad community support for these options are a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There likely is not one initiative to solve this problem, Chung said, but “ultimately an all-of-the above approach will probably be necessary and will require the active participation of the private sector in addition to public funds and rules.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The goal should be to promote policies large and small that establish healthy eating and active living as the default option [and] make unhealthy options less convenient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-style: inherit;color: #000000\">Brian Lau is a freelance writer and an orthopedic surgery resident at UCSF medical center.

They assessed the children for obesity prevalence, and researchers corrected for factors including the mother's age, race or ethnicity of the children, education level, and breast-feeding duration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What babies eat can influence their taste preferences going forward, including leading to preferences for sweet-tasting foods and beverages throughout their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when parents know sugary drinks are bad, many of the drinks parents assume are not sugar-sweetened may well have often significant amounts of added sugar. This can include drinks that are labeled juice, but are not 100 percent fruit juice. So-called \"energy\" or \"sports\" drinks \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/08/06/sports-energy-drinks-as-unhealthful-as-soda-study-says/\" target=\"_blank\">may also be high in sugar\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re doing a lousy job of teaching or convincing parents about sugar-sweetened beverages,” said Dr. Paul Chung in response to an email. He is chief of general pediatrics at the UCLA School of Medicine and was not affiliated with either study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents should be making the immediate gratification of sugar-sweetened drinks less immediate and more inconvenient, he said. “Remove all sugar-sweetened beverages from the house; have filtered refrigerated tap water available at all times, and have family rules against ordering drinks other than water when eating out,” Chung said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, limiting exposure can be hard for parents and children alike. The bigger task, Chung said, “is trying to figure out how to help families do something that doesn’t come naturally to anyone, which is to actively deny themselves and their children pretty reliable immediate gratification.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are clearly failing to individually educate and persuade,\" he said. \"Policy options with real teeth really do need to be considered,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chung outlined several policy approaches to decrease or restrict sugar-sweetened beverage consumption. One option includes taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages, as has been proposed in\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/09/02/berkeley-city-council-puts-soda-tax-on-november-ballot/\" target=\"_blank\"> Berkeley\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/07/23/san-francisco-supervisors-put-soda-tax-on-ballot/\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco\u003c/a>. Another is warning labels on sugar-sweetened beverages. A bill to require labels \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/04/29/soda-labeling-bill-on-hold-over-costs-at-california-senate/\" target=\"_blank\">failed in California\u003c/a> earlier this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other options, Chung said, include providing water at schools and public places in hopes of displacing sugar-sweetened beverage consumption. Even more broadly, neighborhood redesign to emphasize healthier living is growing in popularity. But money and broad community support for these options are a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There likely is not one initiative to solve this problem, Chung said, but “ultimately an all-of-the above approach will probably be necessary and will require the active participation of the private sector in addition to public funds and rules.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The goal should be to promote policies large and small that establish healthy eating and active living as the default option [and] make unhealthy options less convenient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-style: inherit;color: #000000\">Brian Lau is a freelance writer and an orthopedic surgery resident at UCSF medical center.
