Netherlands: share of youth drinking soft drinks daily 2001-2017

The statistic displays the results of a survey of the share of 11-16 year olds drinking soft drinks every day in the Netherlands from 2001 to 2017, by level of education. The survey outcomes suggest that the share of both students in the final year of primary education (in the Netherlands commonly referred to as "groep 8") as well as secondary school students decreased steadily between 2001 and 2017. In 2001, approximately 40 percent of "groep 8" teenagers drank soft drinks daily. By 2013 this figure had more than halved, and as of 2017 just over 11 percent of primary school students surveyed in the Netherlands consumed soft drinks on a daily basis.
