Soft drinks, including sugar-free, linked to a higher risk of death in study of 452,000 people
Here’s some less-than refreshing news about soda: even sugar-free versions were associated with a higher risk of death in a study of 452,000 people in 10 countries.
The study found differences in the health effects of drinks that contain sugar versus those that are artificially sweetened. Sugar-sweetened soft drinks were associated with digestive-disease deaths , while higher consumption of sugar-free versions was associated with deaths from circulatory diseases, including ischemic heart disease, also known as coronary artery disease.Researchers found no association between soft-drink consumption and cancer deaths or deaths from Alzheimer’s disease.
