The Sweet Divide
The 成人快手 investigates levels of added sugar in baby food in low and middle-income countries in Asia, and asks whether there is a link to increased rates of obesity and diabetes.
As people in south east Asia get richer, new parents are increasingly turning to convenience foods to feed their babies. But many of them contain added sugar. The same products being sold in mostly western markets have no added sugar. In the Philippines, the stakes are high - with obesity and diabetes on the rise.
The 成人快手 speaks to the experts sounding the alarm, the social media influencers promoting the foods, the mothers seeking convenience, the government on how it plans to tackle growing health concerns, and asks brands why they're adding sugar to baby food.
