As part of the Austrian nutrient monitoring programme, AGES has been regularly collecting data on nutritional values (e.g. sugar and salt content) and other product-related information on foodstuffs available on the Austrian market since 2017.
The aim of this report is to highlight changes in nutrient levels in soft drinks and tea-based drinks, breakfast cereals and sweetened dairy products over the period from 2017/18 to 2024. It builds on the first report and supplements it with further findings.
The nutrient monitoring shows that a gradual reduction in sugar and salt content in the aforementioned product groups is possible.
