Right to food and nutrition 2016, para. 27
Paragraphe- Paragraph text
- Worldwide data suggest that average sodium and sugar consumption is well above minimal physiological needs. Processed food consumers unknowingly consume three to five times more sodium than required, which is particularly troubling when such foods target children. For example, a global study conducted in 2015 reviewed 387 popular children's meals and found sodium levels to be dangerously high. Similarly, over the past 50 years, global sugar consumption has more than tripled, particularly in the form of sweetened beverages.
