PETALING JAYA: With the government intensifying its “War on Sugar”, consumer associations are calling for eateries to label the sugar and calorific content of their food and drinks.
However, he said incentives like tax breaks and public recognition for businesses that do so may encourage adoption. “When the public sector takes the lead, it often encourages the private sector to follow,” said Saravanan. “Schools and workplaces should be targeted with specific programmes that educate and promote healthier eating habits,” he said.
“Poorer households are also more responsive to price increases and more likely to limit their sugar consumption, thus reducing healthcare expenditures and improving their wellbeing in the long run,” he said. “As for cooked food prepared at stalls and restaurants, the same principle should apply. It’s equally important for these food premises to provide clear information on sugar and calorie content, given that many people frequently consume meals from such outlets,” she said.
