Sugary drinks make bad knees worse

Researchers in the UK studied 6 million older people who were suffering from osteoarthritis, an ailment affecting the knee joints, and found a possible link to sugary drinks.




Quote:




They found that the more soft drinks patients consumed, the faster their condition progressed. Slim men were found to be particularly affected.

The findings are not absolute, from what I can see but, speaking for myself, I am not waiting for the link to be fully confirmed before I start cutting down on my intake of sugary drinks.







How about you?
