The UK's sugar tax has significantly reduced sugar levels in soft drinks but faces criticism for its regressive impact.

Extension of the sugar tax to milkshakes is proposed due to health concerns about sugar intake.

Measure Z, a sugar-sweetened beverage tax, has passed in Santa Cruz, marking a local victory for public health despite opposition and funding challenges.
