The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of different labels on packaged food and drinks to promote healthy diets in Colombia. In 2016, more than half of Colombian adults were overweight, 22% were obese, and 18% of Colombian youth were overweight. The Colombian government is in the process of implementing warning labels on the front of packages high in added sugar, sodium, and saturated fat to better inform consumers. Research is needed to inform the design of this law.
Thank you for your interest, but this study is recruiting by invitation only.
