Study: Drinking beverages with added sugar increases risk for liver problems
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - As if calories weren't enough, here's another reason to give up those sugary drinks.
A new study shows people who drink beverages with added sugar or artificial sweeteners are at a higher risk for liver problems.
Researchers compared people who have one or more sweetened drinks a day to those who have three servings or fewer per month. It turns out that those with a sweet tooth have more than double the chances of chronic liver disease mortality.
