Carbonated soft drinks
According to the recommendation shared on Aboluowang, each person should only consume a maximum of 50 grams of sugar per day. However, just a bottle of 500 ml carbonated soft drink contains more than 60 grams of sugar - meaning it exceeds the safe threshold after just one drink.
Taking in too much sugar not only makes you gain weight easily, but also disrupts the body's sugar metabolism, causing insulin resistance - the main cause of diabetes. One of the common complications of diabetes is damage to small blood vessels, which seriously affects health.
Milk tea
Milk tea is not whole milk. During the processing, people add a lot of sugar to increase sweetness and attractive flavor. Some milk teas even have a sugar content of more than 70 grams, which is higher than carbonated soft drinks.
Drinking milk tea regularly can increase the risk of diabetes and harm the blood vessel system.
Drinks containing a lot of salt
Not only food, some drinks such as bottled juices, processed vegetable juices or sports drinks also contain quite high salt content.
Salt is mainly sodium chloride. When absorbed too much, sodium increases blood volume, thereby causing high blood pressure.
Prolonged high blood pressure will damage the vessel walls, easily leading to atherosclerosis, one of the risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
