CSPI calls on Trump admin to focus on less sugar, not different sugar

Government AccountabilityJuly 24, 2025

RE: Recommended strategies for reducing added sugar consumption

On behalf of the Center for Science in the Public Interest, we are writing to express our strong support for federal efforts to reduce added sugars consumption and wish to highlight specific policies that the Department of Health and Human Services can implement now to support efforts to reduce added sugars consumption. We appreciate that both Secretary Kennedy and Commissioner Makary have committed to improving the health of the American people, and children in particular, through their work at HHS and the Food and Drug Administration. Moreover, the Secretary’s Make Our Children Healthy Again Assessment discusses the health impacts of high added sugars intake and the prevalence of added sugars throughout the U.S. food supply. To make real progress, our country needs policies to reduce added sugars overall, consumed in beverages and across the American diet. View the resource below to keep reading.

Which low-calorie sweeteners are safe—and which aren't?

As people cut back on added sugars, low-calorie sweeteners are stepping in. They add sweetness with few or no calories to sodas and sports drinks, yogurts and ice creams, cookies and candy, toothpaste, and more. Are they safe? It depends on the sweetener. Here are some key findings on the most popular ones. To learn more, check out our guide to sweeteners and other food additives.

Sugary soft drinks available to children with kids' meals purchase

Restaurants are starting to offer healthier beverages to kids in store. Online, not so much

Sugary drinks are the leading source of added sugars in the U.S. diet and the majority of U.S. children exceed the recommended daily limit for added sugars. Many restaurant chains have dropped sugary drink offerings to children from sit-down menus in an effort to improve the healthfulness of their kids’ meals. With the recent increase in online ordering, it is important that this commitment to promote healthier options is reflected on online ordering menus.
