Soft drinks linked to early death
Those who consume the beverages are 17% more likely to die prematurely, European study shows
Consumption of soft drinks, whether they’re sweetened with sugar or artificial sweeteners, may raise the risk of premature death, European research suggests.
In a study that followed around 400,000 adults for more than 16 years, the risk of premature death was heightened in those who consumed two or more glasses of soft drink a day.
