More Proof We are What We Eat - In This Case, What We Drink
An interesting new U.S. study has been presented providing further evidence that drinking soft drinks is hazardous to one’s long-term health and that diet soft drinks create similar health problems as regular soft drinks.
This recent Health Study has found that “drinking more than one soft drink a day - even a sugar-free diet brand - may be associated with an elevated risk for metabolic syndrome, a cluster of factors that significantly boosts the chance of having a heart attack or stroke and developing diabetes”.
This study has been responsible and respectful in reporting that its’ findings provide “associated evidence” and not clear cause and effect as other social and dietary factors may have contributed to the results.
Regardless, I would prefer to not wait for further research and stick to water, juice, or herbal tea.

I agree water and natural liquids are preferable. I invite you to read what some of the members at TuDiabetes.com (a community for people touched by diabetes) have to say about this:
