Taxes on sugary drinks cut consumer sales by 33%, study says
Raising the price of sugar-sweetened sodas, coffees, teas and energy, sports and fruit drinks by an average of 31% reduced consumer purchases of those drinks by a third, according to a new analysis of restrictions implemented in five US cities.
¡°What we measured is how consumers change their consumption in response to price changes,¡± said study author Scott Kaplan, an assistant professor of economics at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.
