3 Mountain Dew a day on average, age 47, no high blood pressure given my last checkup...last month. I call BS! =.=

[theDentist]

Oh, please don’t tell me they wasted tax money on this.

Did they adjust for the caffeine content of the drinks? If not, they’d better go back to the drawing board.

[Nervous Tick]

Sugar sweetened drinks are responsible for higher blood pressure? Srsly?

I thought it was DemocRats.

(In fact, in my case, I’m CERTAIN it’s ‘rats, since I don’t drink sugar sweetened drinks at all... and I limit myself to six pots of coffee per day.)

l-phenylalnine was the turkey drug so we let him pass.
Unnatural sweeteners do un natural things inside your body.

Can’t wait for Mooch-elle to haul her fat ass and thick canckles down to our refrigerators to stop us from choosing what the hell we want to drink. Where the hell do they get the time and tax dollars to come up with this $hit?

“Sugar-Sweetened Drinks Associated With Higher Blood Pressure”

King obuma associated with higher blood pressure amongst conservatives and patriots. Cure, in various contrivances, is known and effective.

I much prefer naturally sugared drinks than the sugar substituted diet drinks because I feel that sugar substitutes may cause cancer.

[Lazlo in PA]

Something tells me soda won't be eliminated from the Obamas diet even after the results of this stupid study.

As far as I can tell, this guy is the cause of 99% of the high blood pressure in the country.

[Bean Counter]

Sooooooooo......which one is worse for me every morning...??

A) My morning quart of espresso.

B) The real sugar I put in my quart of espresso.

C) The real cream I use to lighten my sweetened quart of espresso.

Thankfully I chase my blood pressure meds with a quart of light, sweet espresso first thing every morning....

Sugar-Sweetened Drinks Associated With Higher Blood Pressure

How about high taxes and government regulation? Has anyone done a study of the health effects of these on productive citizens?

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

As was done with tobacco the drum beat against soft drinks is starting. Obesity, high blood pressure and soon some genius will develop the concept of “second hand diabetes” or some such nonsense. This will allow the foul and corrupt political class to impose tax and fees of $7.50/can.

[Trillian]

They’re looking for something to scare people over and to tax.
It makes me wonder if they have some kind of program set to a timer to come up with something new to keep people in a state of constant fear.

[Redcloak]

Well then it’s a good thing that I prefer beverages where most of the nasty sugar has been removed by yeast.
