People are having more and more sugar-based drinks. What are the reasons?

What are the solutions to make people drink less?

People in modern society are prone to drinking sugary beverages. This essay attempts
to shed light on the causative reasons for this phenomenon as well as suggest some
feasible solutions to cut down on sugar-based drinks' absorption.
A lack of nutrition knowledge and the explosion of the exaggerated advertising industry
are two ultimate reasons for that issue. First and foremost, consumers have yet to know
exactly how much sugar is in each soft drink and their daily volume absorption. In other
words, their sugar consumption potentially causes several repercussions by causing
unhealthy habits. Second, the aftereffect of excessive sugary beverage
consumption can be attributed to beverage brands' advertising campaigns. This
means that soft drink corporations are likely to use brand ambassadors who exert a
profound impact on the behavioral economics of society and on spending habits
in order to promote their fizzy beverages. As a result, such consumers are expected
to pay for the goods represented by these influencers.
There are some optimum approaches to decreasing the overconsumption of sugary
beverages. The initial measure is to educate consumers about the sugary
ingredients in general drinks. Specifically, the governing bodies must launch a public
campaign to discourage citizens from consuming sugar and to raise awareness of
a healthy lifestyle. By doing it in that way, the authorities may lawfully force the soft
drink producers to display the real nutritional values of their drinks accurately and
comprehensively. Furthermore, legislators ought to implement strict scrutiny on tax
hikes for sugary-heavy beverages. Thus, these drinks should have been taxed
threefold like cigarettes and tobacco products to dissuade more customers from
absorbing the unhealthy heavy sugary ones.
All in all, I strongly believe that the lack of acquiring nutrition knowledge and the
overwhelming lopsided advertisements have led to the overcontrol of consuming
sugar-based products. If policymakers worldwide seriously impose higher taxes, the
abovementioned issue will be addressed.
