Question

For over 125 years, we’ve been bringing people
together. Today, we’d like people to come together
on something that concerns all of us: obesity. The
long term health of our families and the country is at
stake. And as the nation’s leading beverage
company, we can play an important role.
Across our portfolio of more than 650 beverages,
we now offer over 180 low and no-calorie choices.
And most of our full calorie beverages now have low
or no calorie versions.
Over the last 15 years, this has helped to reduce
the average calories per serving across our
industry’s products in the US by about 22%. We’ve
created smaller-portion controlled sizes for our
most popular drinks and will have them in about
90% of the country by the end of this year.
We’ve added the calorie content of all our
beverages on the front, to help make it even easier
for people to make informed decisions.
For elementary, middle, and high schools our
industry has voluntarily changed its offerings to
primarily waters, juices, and low and no-calorie
options. This has helped to reduce the calories from
our industry’s beverages in those schools by 90%
since 2004.
We support programs like the Boys & Girls Club
of America that enable young people to get active
and start healthy habits early.
Leading is also about new thinking which is why
we will continue to work with scientists and

nutritionists on innovative things like zero calorie all-
natural sweeteners.

But beating obesity will take action by all of us.
Based on one simple common sense fact: all
calories count. No matter where they come from.
Including Coca-Cola and everything else with
calories. And if you eat and drink more calories than
you burn off, you’ll gain weight.
The well-being of our families and communities
concerns everyone. And finding a solution will take
continued effort from all of us. But at Coca-Cola, we
know when people come together, we can make a
real difference. To learn more,
