Stricter regulations are needed for food and non-alcoholic beverage advertising (PABNA) targeting children in Mexico. Current frameworks have limitations in protecting child health from unhealthy products linked to obesity.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Policy
  • Nutritional Science

Background:

  • Childhood obesity and chronic diseases are rising public health concerns in Mexico.
  • Advertising of food and non-alcoholic beverages (PABNA) significantly influences children's dietary choices.
  • Existing regulatory frameworks for PABNA targeting children require evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To document the evolution of regulatory frameworks for food and non-alcoholic beverage advertising (PABNA) directed at the child population (PI) in Mexico.
  • To analyze the strengths and weaknesses of these regulations over time.
  • To assess the adaptation of regulations to media changes.

Main Methods:

  • Documentary review of laws, regulations, and guidelines.
  • Analysis of PABNA regulations published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación (DOF) from 1926 to 2016.

  • Identification of regulatory advantages and limitations.

    • Main Results:

    • Eighteen official documents from the DOF were reviewed.
    • Key advantages and limitations of regulatory frameworks for PABNA targeting PI were identified.
    • The study highlights how regulation has adapted to evolving communication media.

    Conclusions:

    • A strict regulation on PABNA targeting PI is necessary in Mexico.
    • Regulations should prevent messages promoting low-nutritional-quality products.
    • Stricter controls are crucial to curb rising rates of overweight, obesity, and chronic diseases.
