3 changes that occurred when a hospital banned soft drink

A soft drink sales ban at a university campus and hospital resulted in not only staff halving their sugary drinks consumption, but had other cardiometabolic benefits as well, a US study has found.
In October 2015, the University of California in San Francisco banned the sale of sugar-sweetened beverages from its campuses and associated hospital.
Researchers from the university assessed the impact on 214 staff (58% female, mean age 41, mean BMI 29.4) who were regular sweetened beverage consumers, drinking at least 360ml of such drinks a day.
They were assessed before the study, when they drank on average more than a litre of sugary drinks daily, and then 10 months after the ban.
