Drinking one sugar-laden soft drink every day could
dramatically increase the odds of having a heart
attack. A study of more than 40,000 men suggested that a daily sugar-sweetened drink raised the chances of
having a heart attack including a deadly one by
20 per cent. In contrast, diet varieties that use artificial sweeteners were given a clean bill of health by the studys authors Researcher Lawrence de Koning said the body may compensate for the sugar rush of soft drinks by making its own supply of fats, and some of these will be bad for the hear
Biological scientist Dr Hans-Peter Kubis, who's just lead a study into what soft drinks do to our bodies, has reached some shocking conclusions. When you read what he discovered, you may well choose never to touch the fizzy stuff again.
Its no surprise to learn, then, that our consumption of soft drinks has more than doubled since 1985. from ten gallons per person a year to more than 25 gallons. We know this is not entirely good for us but could sugary soft drinks be so dangerous that they should carry health warnings? This may sound alarmist, but new medical studies have produced worrying results.
Even moderate consumption a can a day, or just two a week may alter our metabolism so that we pile on weight. The drinks also appear to : increase the risk of heart disease, liver failure Hypertension
In children, soft drinks have been linked to addict-like cravings, as well as twisting kids appetites so they hunger for junk food. Already, countries such as Denmark and France are introducing softdrink taxes to cut consumption. In the U.S., around 100 medical and consumer organisations are now calling on the Surgeon-General to investigate the health effects of soda and other sugary drinks.
The consumption of sugar-sweetened soft drinks is associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes, dental caries, and low nutrient levels. Experimental studies tend to support a causal role for sugarsweetened soft drinks in these ailments, though this is challenged by other researchers."Sugar-sweetened" includes drinks that use high-fructose corn syrup, as well as those using sucrose.
Dangers of Softdrink Addiction
Over the last 30 years a virtual tome of information has been published linking soft drink consumption to a rise in osteoporosis and bone fractures. New evidence has shown an alarming rise in deficiencies of calcium and other minerals and resulting bone fractures in young girls.
According to a February 2011 news release from the American Heart Association, research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference found that people who drink diet soda every day have a 61 percent higher risk of vascular events than those who reported no soda consumption.
Soda contains acidic ingredients that can erode tooth enamel, resulting in tooth decay. Frequent soda drinkers often consume fewer nutrient-rich beverages in the daily diet, such as milk and juice, replacing them with soft drinks, decreasing calcium intake and increasing the risk of developing osteoporosis

OBESITY
Regular soda consumption has been linked with increased risk of overweight and obesity, which are, in turn, associated with higher risk of a heart disease, diabetes and many other serious health issues. A 2011 review published in the journal "Circulation" states that a positive association has been shown between sugar-sweetened soft drink consumption and weight gain in both children and adults.

CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH
Drinking diet soda regularly may affect cardiovascular health. According to a February 2011 news release from the American Heart Association, research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference found that people who drink diet soda every day have a 61 percent higher risk of vascular events than those who reported no soda consumption.
METABOLIC SYNDROME
Regular soda drinkers have been shown to be at higher risk of developing metabolic syndrome, which is a group of symptoms that indicate a heightened risk of heart disease, diabetes and stroke. To be diagnosed with metabolic syndrome, a person must display at least three of the following symptoms; excess fat in the abdominal area, high triglyceride levels, low HDL cholesterol levels, high blood pressure and high fasting blood sugar.
