Summary

This study looked at whether four simple nudges—like showing sugar content or health warnings—could encourage college students to pick sugar-free drinks instead of sugary ones. Over 1,600 students took part in menu-choice tasks. The goal was to see if these gentle pushes can promote healthier beverage choices without restricting freedom.
