Massachusetts H2468 promotes children's health by regulating sugary drinks in schools and sugary foods in chain restaurants.
Massachusetts H2468 aims to improve children's health by implementing several measures. It prohibits advertising non-compliant beverages and brands in schools, including on school grounds, buses, and uniforms. The bill also mandates that chain restaurants offer healthier children's meals, limiting calories, sodium, added sugars, saturated fat, and trans fat. Additionally, it requires chain restaurants to report added sugars in menu items every 90 days. The Department of Public Health will create warning icons for menu items exceeding daily added sugars values.
