Expected benefits of increasing taxes to nonessential energy-dense foods in Mexico
Very few examples of taxation on NEDFs exist worldwide, and Mexico has been a key example. Policymakers should consider a tax reform that increases the current NEDFs tax to achieve larger health benefits
Incident cases and healthcare costs of non-communicable diseases attributable to industrialized and total sugar sweetened beverage intake in Mexico
Despite efforts to reduce SSB consumption, their consumption continues to affect population health and increase healthcare costs
Prevalence of Post-Covid conditions among Mexican Covid-19 survivors
About one-third of the adult Mexican population who had COVID-19 in 2021 had Post-COVID conditions. Our population-based estimates can help assess potential priorities for PCC-related health services, which is critical in light of our weak health system and limited funding
Building upon the sugar beverage tax in Mexico
INTRODUCTION: In 2014, Mexico implemented a one peso-per-litre tax to sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB). Even though this tax reduced household purchases and predicted population health gains, the magnitude is lower compared with taxes implemented in other settings. In this study, we assessed what would happen if Mexico modified its existing tax to get higher benefits based on currently implemented taxes elsewhere. METHODS: For each tax scenario, we…
Changes in the Retail Food Environment in Mexican Cities and Their Association with Blood Pressure Outcomes
Shifting food environments in Latin America have potentially contributed to an increase in the consumption of ultra-processed foods and sugar-sweetened beverages, along with decreases in healthy foods, such as fruits and vegetables. Yet, little is known about the impact that such changes in the food environment have on blood pressure in low- and middle-income countries, including Mexico. We utilized individual-level systolic and diastolic blood p…
Factors associated with pregnancy and motherhood among Mexican women aged 15-24
Adolescent pregnancy is associated with poor health and socioeconomic factors. The adolescent pregnancy rate in Mexico is the highest among the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. We aimed to explore the factors associated with pregnancies and births in adolescent and young adult women. Using the 2015 Mexican National Survey of Boys, Girls, and Women (ENIM), we examined two dichotomous outcomes: "ever pregnant…
Smoking prevalence and attributable disease burden in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2015
BACKGROUND: The scale-up of tobacco control, especially after the adoption of the Framework Convention for Tobacco Control, is a major public health success story. Nonetheless, smoking remains a leading risk for early death and disability worldwide, and therefore continues to require sustained political commitment. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) offers a robust platform through which global, regional, and na…
Behaviours and opinions towards outdoor smoking bans and cigarette littering in Baja California, Mexico
OBJECTIVE: Outdoor smoking bans have been implemented to reduce secondhand smoke exposure and cigarette littering. We aimed to explore outdoor smoking behaviours, cigarette littering, and support towards a recently enacted outdoor smoking ban in Baja California, Mexico. METHODS: From October 2013 to April 2014 a representative sample of 800 adults from urban areas of Baja California was surveyed to obtain information on demographics, smoking stat…
Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990–2013
