Straight Facts

I recently read that soft drinks, including diet drinks cause heart disease. Is this true?

This is false. A recent study published in American medical journal Circulation, about metabolic syndrome and sparkling drinks, gained much media attention in Australia. Metabolic syndrome, also known as insulin resistance, is a group of conditions that put you at risk of heart disease and diabetes. It is a complex issue that cannot be attributed to a single cause or a single food, drink or ingredient. The assertions being made could apply to any product containing kilojoules – if you over consume any food or beverage with kilojoules, there are health consequences. Neither regular or diet sparkling drinks nor any other product as unique in this equation. For more information about metabolic syndrome and this study, click here

Achieving a healthy balanced lifestyle can be hard. It can be difficult to find balance in the decisions you make every day, but the little choices you make can quickly add up: taking the stairs instead of the lift in the morning, saying no to dessert at lunchtime or high-fat, high kilojoule snacks in the afternoon, and opting to get on the treadmill instead of the couch in the evening. These choices can help shape the way you look, how you feel about yourself, and help you to achieve a more balanced lifestyle.
