Yet another study has pointed out the negative aspect of your love towards carbonated soda drinks and juice boxes. Although not the first in the category, this new study from the United States has proven that the more amount of sodas and juice a person consumes is clearly linked to an increased risk of diabetes. The study is published in the Diabetes Journal and has the objective of evaluating \u201cthe associations of long-term changes in consumption of sugary beverages (including sugar-sweetened beverages and 100% fruit juices) and artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs) with subsequent risk of type 2 diabetes.\u201d<\/p>\n
What makes this study different from others in the category is the magnitude of the data it has accumulated in the process. A total of 192,000 people were surveyed as a part of the study and their consumption rates of sugary beverages \u2014 including sodas and juices \u2014 were taken into account. It was found that a noticeable number of people, in fact, 12,000 of the surveyed, had developed type 2 diabetes by the time the study was ready for publishing. This obviously indicates the actual health problems that the increased demand for soda drinks and juice beverages have in the current society.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven though consumption of 100 percent fruit juices has been considered a healthy alternative to sugar-sweetened beverages because of the vitamins and minerals in fruit juices, they typically contain similar amounts of sugar and calories as sugar-sweetened beverages,\u201d Jean-Philippe Drouin-Chartier, who is the lead author for the study, was quoted saying by ABC CBN News. \u201cSugary beverages that people might otherwise think of as being healthy provide a load of sugar (sucrose) which gets broken down to glucose and raises blood glucose,\u201d added the nutrition researcher who is currently affiliated to the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
