Answer To Your Fitness Questions" />Stay Trim: Don’t Eat Sugar And Don’t Drink Soda
October 3, 2007
To stay trim, be sure to avoid soda! Especially sugar sweetened ones. Those who drink at least one soda (regular or diet) a day were more likely to develop metabolic syndrome according to researchers who tracked approximately 9000 men and women for four years.
The Metabolic syndrome applies to anyone with at least three of the following criteria:
Blood pressure: at least 135 over 85
HDL cholesterol: less than 50 for women and less than 40 for men
Waist: a minimum of 35 inches for women and 40 inches for men.
Triglycerides: were at least 150.
Fasting blood sugar: at least 100.
They found the risk of having this syndrome was 44 percent higher in people who drank at least one soft drink a day than those who drank less.
The answer??? Drink water!!
