Scientific studies confirm the damage
Several studies support the link between soda consumption and poor bone health:
✅ A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that women who drank cola daily had lower bone mineral density than those who did not.
✅ Research from Tufts University showed that high soda consumption is linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis and bone fragility.
Who is most at risk?
⚠️ Postmenopausal women – They are already at risk for osteoporosis, and soda consumption can accelerate bone loss.
⚠️ Adolescents – During the growing years, strong bones need calcium, but soda consumption often replaces healthier beverages.
⚠️ Older adults – Because bone density naturally decreases with age, soda can exacerbate the problem.
