Result Hobbies Guzzling Soft Drinks

If the previous studies mentioned that the consumption of sweetened soft drinks and artificial can increase the risk of diabetes, this time the fact that a recent study found more surprising.

As reported by websites duniafitnes, consume soft drinks and sweetened artificial in the long run may increase the risk of kidney stone formation.

This result is obtained after a team of researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, USA, surveyed more than 190 thousand participants. Each participant was given questions about medical history, lifestyle, and how they are taking drugs.

Researchers found that participants who consumed more soft drinks than one serving / day may experience the formation of kidney stones by 23 percent than participants who only consume soft drinks once a week.

Even according to The New York Times, soft drinks contain high levels of phosphoric acid, a substance that can increase the risk of kidney failure. Carbonated drinks are also known to have the ability to absorb calcium from the bones thus increasing the risk of osteoporosis for anyone who eat them.

"Adults should consume at least 6-8 glasses of water per day to stay hydrated and prevent the formation of kidney stones. Reduce consumption of sweetened soft drinks and artificial can also alienate the people from the risk of kidney stones, "said Nancy Copperman, director of public health initiatives of the North Shore-LIJ Health System, Great Neck, NY, told WebMD.
