Sugar-sweetened beverage consumption, weight gain, and risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases in Asia: a systematic review
Indulgence in sugar-sweetened beverages may herald the development of excess weight, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes.
This meta-analysis synthesized data and evidence from previous studies that examined sugar-sweetened beverage consumption in relation to the occurrence of weight gain, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular disease. Data from 17 studies were utilized for this meta-analysis.
Researchers associated generous drinking of sugary beverages with accelerated weight gain and increased risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes. This meta-analysis provided strong evidence linking the intake of sweetened beverages with the piling up of excess pounds and rising incidence of obesity, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes.
