Sounds to me that the cause and effect “found” in the study was purely statistical and we must take it on faith that the exploration was thorough enough to hone it down to this cause and this cause only. “Oh yeah, we forgot to ask them if they ...” could be the death of the study, not the subjects. Hardly something upon which to base policy.

Too many Cokes, Root Beers, 7 Ups. Kill yourself all you'd like.
But belching all that CO2 and killing the planet is unacceptable.

That is why I drink tea.No sugar or artificial sweetener is the key according to these folks. I don't know why they mention 'fizz' since that is not what they say causes the trouble. How about Kool-aid or Gatorade?
The baby boomers should all be dead or having liver transplants by now since they are the first generation raised on soft drinks.

The baby boomers should all be dead or having liver transplants by now since they are the first generation raised on soft drinks.Yet somehow life expectancy keeps going up, even for the boomers.

Actually drinking too much of any kind of soda is bad. Like everything else, done in moderation not so bad. I read a report by Greek doctors that came out last May detailing how too much caffeinated cola can cause muscle weakness. A number of people in the test had their consumption of cola cut way back, and their muscular problems disappeared or were reduced dramatically.
I realized I was drinking too much diet soda (a gallon a day) and cut way back. A lot of problems I've had with muscle weakness in my hands and arms improved markedly. If you drink more than a few cans of soda a day and are having muscle problems, I highly suggest you cut way back. So says Doctor (fake one) Driftless.

Sounds like the problem is sugar, not fizz — so would diet sodas be a problem?
To: neverdem
The group of 90 people, 45 men and 45 women aged 40-50, were asked about their level of physical activity, caloric intake and the amount of soft drinks they consume. Geez, they don't mention the physical activity aspect in the results of their test? Sounds like they have an anti-soft drink agenda. I'd venture to say that two sodas aday are mostly consumed by those who lead a sedentary lifestyle. It is the lack of exercise that leads to fatty liver problems.
