This study documents sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption among overweight and obese Marshallese adults and examines the association between SSB consumption and body mass index. Data from 378 participants enrolled in a Diabetes Prevention Program cluster-randomized controlled trial were analyzed. Associations were assessed using generalized estimating equations. More than half of participants reported consuming SSBs 1 or more times per day. Obese participants were twice as likely as overweight participants to consume SSBs 1 or more times per day (P= .005). These results will be immediately useful to researchers and practitioners working with the Marshallese community to improve nutrition and prevent diet-related chronic diseases.
