Effects of fizzy drinks on health
https://www.nhs.uk/news/food-and-diet/fizzy-soft-drinks-linked-to-health-risk/
Key points:
People who drink more than one fizzy soft drink a day are “up to 60 percent more likely to
develop obesity and high blood pressure, leading to heart attacks and strokes” According to
the Mail.
Obesity and high blood pressure can lead to cardiovascular diseases – ‘metabolic syndrome’
44% more likely to get metabolic syndrome if you drink one soft drink a day
Drinking soft drinks is associated with a higher risk of metabolic syndrome in middle-aged
adults.
Sugar is strongly linked to dental issues - a third of five-year-olds and almost half of eight-
year-olds have some decay in their milk teeth.
high sugar intake may be linked to early puberty in girls resulting in an increased risk of
breast cancer.
There are up to nine teaspoons of sugar in a can of fizzy drink, which equates to 36g sugar -
exceeding the daily recommendation for children.
middle-aged people who regularly drink sugar-sweetened fizzy drinks had 30 per cent more
visceral fat in the abdomen on average.
This type of ‘deep’ fat wraps around internal organs such as the liver, pancreas and
intestines, and increases the risk of coronary heart disease and type-two diabetes.
Even those who drank them once a week, gained eight per cent more visceral fat chance
than those who never drank them. No link was found between diet soft drinks and visceral
fat.
