I recently measured the sugar in one of my favorite drinks—and was surprised by the result. Many everyday beverages are packed with added sugar.
That’s why I introduced #SB869 to require menus to label drinks with 50%+ of your recommended daily value for added sugar. #RethinkTheDrink
For this week's #WellnessWednesday, my office held a contest to find the drink with the most added sugar. The winner will stun you. My bill, #SB869, requires restaurant menu labels for drinks with 50%+ of your recommended value daily added sugar. Informed Choices = Healthy Choices. #RethinkTheDrink
When people know better, they can do better. Families deserve accessible information to make healthy and informed decisions. #RethinkTheDrink
I'm holding a press conference right now on my bill, SB 869, which would require restaurants to clearly label drinks with high levels of added sugar on their menus. Families deserve the information they need to make healthy decisions. #RethinkTheDrink
My family and I are checking how much sugar is in our favorite drinks.
Today: organic chocolate milk!
Too much added sugar is linked to Type 2 Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and Heart Disease.
My bill, SB 869, would require restaurant menus to flag drinks with high added sugar. #RethinkTheDrink.
All this week, my family and I are checking how much sugar is in our favorite drinks and today’s result are eye-opening.
That is why I authored SB 869, which would require restaurants to label drinks with 50%+ of the daily recommended sugar. More transparency=better choices. #RethinkTheDrink
