Well-being & Choice

Well-being is an increasingly important issue for consumers and our business. Poor nutrition and lack of physical activity can contribute to health problems. The consequences associated with obesity and other health-related conditions, particularly among young people, are a growing concern for our stakeholders.

To address this critical issue:

We offer our consumers a choice of beverages that refresh, hydrate, energize and nourish
We proactively support nutritional labeling for our products
We work with our partners in communities around the world to develop and promote physical activities programs
We work through our company's Beverage Institue for Health & Wellness on nutrition research and education

Nutritional Labeling

The Coca-Cola system is voluntarily expanding nutrition labeling so that consumers can make informed dietary choices. In the United States, new packaging will include caffeine content in addition to the other detailed nutrition information already on packaging. In 2006, Coca-Cola Australia began providing caloric information per serving on labels based on consultation with stakeholders and consumer groups. And by 2008, all Coca-Cola products in the European Union will have expanded nutrition labeling based on Guideline Daily Amounts, in an initiative supported by other industry leaders and stakeholders.
