Sugary drinks kill

Sugary drinks kill about 184,000 adults every year globally. The deaths occur due to diabetes, heart-attacks and cancer.

‘Many countries in the world have a significant number of deaths occurring from a single dietary factor like sugar-sweetened beverages. It should be a global priority to substantially reduce or eliminate sugar-sweetened beverage from the diet.’ said Dariush Mozaffarian, senior author of the study from Tufts University in Boston.

So next time you plan to have a sugar-sweetened drink….think about the harm it an do to you in the long run.
