Weak bones/ Osteoporosis
The consumption of soft drinks increases the risk of suffering from osteoporosis, due to the action of phosphoric acid, which prevents the correct absorption of calcium, weakening the bones.
A study by Tufts University found that women who drank soda three times a week had an average bone loss of 4% more (in areas such as the hips) than the group of women who drank other types of drinks.
Obesity
Soft drinks are widely associated with weight gain and obesity.
Of course, the increase in calories consumed leads to weight gain, but even diet soft drinks can cause this problem.
Recent studies have shown an association between sugar-free soft drinks and an increase in waist size.
Diabetes
A study of 90,000 women showed that those who drank one or more sugary drinks (such as juice or soft drinks) were more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
Sugary drinks increase fasting glucose levels and insulin resistance.
Heart attack
Researchers at Harvard University found that daily consumption of drinks with a high sugar content increases the likelihood of suffering a heart attack by 20%.
This risk increases with the amount of sweet drinks consumed daily.
