UNUSUAL SUSPECTS
How about a refreshing can of fizzy… poison? That’s a bit dramatic, but a new study in the journal Circulation
claims sugary drinks could be responsible for up to 184,000 adult deaths each year worldwide. The British
Medical Association reacted by saying a 20% tax should be added to all sugar-filled beverages and used to subsidise fresh fruit and veg. Not a bad idea, but an
even better one is not to drink any. And it’s not just Coke and the like – sugar lurks in more drinks than you probably think, so follow our guide for a serious
upgrade to your drinking habits. These drinks shatter the WHO’s recommended 6tsp of sugar a day – so swap them for low-sugar options with added benefits
