Soda Cans in Ice
US federal guidlines recommend that people cut back on soda consumption. Soda and sport drinks contain high amounts of added sugar.
Key takeaways:
- You should consume less than 10 percent of calories from added sugars per day. The sugars are added to food during processing either to enhance flavor or as preservative.
- Drinking soda or a glass of juice as an occasional treat is entirely different from habitually drinking them. Such habits are downright dangerous and the reason behind the rising cases of obesity.
- All this sugar leads to dental cavities and tooth decay.
