In today\u2019s food environments, consumers face challenges in making healthy and affordable dietary choices due to the widespread availability and marketing of energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods. Affordability is a key factor influencing consumer demand for various foods and beverages. Recognizing the potential of fiscal measures, including taxation and subsidies, to promote healthier diets, this WHO guideline provides Member States with evidence-based recommendations and implementation strategies.
