US states have introduced bills requiring sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) to display health warning labels. This study examined how such labels may influence parents and which labels are most impactful. In an online survey of 2381 demographically and educationally diverse parents, SSB health warning labels improved parents understanding of health harms associated with overconsumption of SSBs. The warning labels also lowered parents' intentions to purchase SSBs for their children.
