00:00We are campaigning to reduce sugar. One spoon is enough, half is better, there is no best.
00:14For example, I can mention that we have SSB tax that last January we have increased by 10 cents, 40 to 50 cents.
00:23And we are also waiting for a little bit more for the Minister of Finance to make a statement on the increase of SSB tax.
00:40So, it's a kind of a, not a syntax, but more or less, to get or to reduce the use of sugar.
00:53We don't need to know when we increase the SSB tax.
00:58Last year, in January, we got an evidence-based proof that the reduction was 9.9% to be exact.
01:09That shows the effectiveness of our program.
01:12Daniel, do you think that I forgot to mention about sugar?
01:15Yes, NHMS is the National Institute of Diabetes Research.
01:18Oh, that's okay. NHMS, we also, yes.
01:24Diabetes, to be honest, experienced a slight decrease in NHMS 2019 and NHMS 2023.
01:34Now, we are at 115 percent, 15.6, from 18, 19, close to 19.
01:47So, we are now 1 in 6 diabetic.
