Thread: Sugary Drinks And Diabetes

Did you know that if you drink too many sugary drinks, you increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes and heart disease? I read this article from Medical News Today and according to research, sugary drinks contributed to about 130,000 cases of Type 2 diabetes and 14,000 cases of heart disease between 1990 and 2000 in the USA.

So sugary drinks don't just make you fat, they also cause serious health problems.. It's more than enough reason for us to avoid them. Parents should also educated their children about this since they love sugary drinks the most. These drinks can even be accessed in the school cafeteria or vending machines so they should know the risk involved of drinking too much of them.

Thanks viktoria.. I think this is really important so it's good that you shared this..Its very helpful..

Thanks sasa, mikaela.. I guess same goes with candies and other sweet foods.. It should be avoided especially if you have a family history of diabetes
