Abstract:Objective To explore the factors affecting beverage consumption among students in Beijing, and to provide ideas for the development of sugar reduction education. Methods Data were collected from 1,912 students aged 8-14 years who participated in the Nutrition and Health Surveillance of Schoolchildren in Beijing in 2015. A snack and beverage consumption questionnaire was administered to the children and their corresponding caregivers to collect information about demography, beverage consumption of the children, factors related to family snack and beverage consumption, and the awareness and utilization of the nutritional composition table. In addition, height and weight of the children were measured, and the body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Results Two hundred and thirty-three (12.2%) enrolled children did not consume any beverage in the week before the survey. The average daily consumption of beverages was (319.8±364.4)ml/d (with the median of 201.4 ml/d) among the rest 1,679children (87.8%) who consumed beverages. Binary logistic regression showed that children with more snack frequency,better awareness and utilization of nutritional composition table, andfrom families whose snacks and beverages accounted for a largerproportion of the total food cost were more likely to consume beverages (OR=1.63, OR=1.23, OR=2.18; all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression displayed that boys and suburban children were more likely to consume more beverages (β=0.18, β=0.19; both P<0.05). Children with older age, higher BMI, a higher consumption frequency of snacks,from families whose snacks and beverages accounted for a larger proportion of the total food cost, andhavingmore frequent beverage consumption of primary caregiversduring the past weekhad more consumption of beverages (β=0.09, β=0.01, β=0.24, β=0.39, β=0.04; all P<0.05).Primary caregivers with a higher level of education contributed to less consumption of beverages in children (β=-0.29, P<0.05). Conclusion While implementing sugar reduction education in schoolchildren in Beijing, we should focus on students with older age, boys, suburban students, students with a low education level of caregiver and higher BMI. Potential intervention measures include reducing the parents’ consumption frequency of beverages, decreasing the cost of family snacks and beverages, and reducing thestudents’ consumption frequency of snacks.
