| Sugar-sweetened drinks linked to increased risk of heart disease in men, study suggests Posted: 12 Mar 2012 01:27 PM PDT Men who drank one sugar-sweetened beverage a day had a 20 percent higher risk of heart disease compared to men who did not drink any sugar-sweetened drinks. Daily sugar-sweetened drink consumption was also linked to higher levels of harmful lipids in the blood and inflammation. Artificially sweetened beverages did not increase heart-disease risk in this study.  |
