Article Highlight: Diet, sugary sodas alike linked to heart disease factors

As I was browsing through the health news at googles news,  this article, Diet, sugary sodas alike linked to heart disease factors , caught my attention. It’s about a research on people who drink sodas (soft drink) raise risk of metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is related to health problem likes - high blood pressure, low levels of “good” cholesterol etc, which is linked to developing heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

Its doesn’t matter how many soft drinks you consume a day or what type of soft drink. There is still a RISK  !

Although the American Beverage Association carry out another study which proves that there is no link between soft drinks and increased risk of heart disease. But I WOULDN’T RISK my health for it. Would you ? 

So think Twice or Thrice before consuming your next can of soft drink!

    For me, everything that we put in our mouth is a risk.. we just need to eat moderately.. and live healthy life style…

    American Beverage Association has a vested interest in putting out their own ’studies’… Good topic! If the whole list of ingredients is unpronounceable chemicals, it’s probably a good idea not to ingest it…
