Abstract: The paper studies socio-demographic and behavioural factors of carbonated sugar-sweetened Beverage (SSB) consumption among the Russian adult population. The authors analyze five SSB consumption types, classifying them by intensity. The research is based on the Rosstat Population Health Survey 2022 microdata. The results show that males, young and single people are more likely to consume SSB (including hazardous quantities of SSB). Furthermore, SSB consumption is associated with adverse health behaviours (unbalanced diet, unhealthy habits, low physical activity). A warmer climate leads to more intensive SSB consumption. High socioeconomic status (SES) decreases SSB consumption among women, while men’s SSB consumption does not correlate with SES. Intense sports activities increase the risk of SSB consumption by men, while for women, we do not observe the effect. The results indicate that men and young people are not sufficiently aware of the SSB consumption health consequences.
