In 2007 the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) made headlines with a study that illustrates just how expansive this danger really is and how an increased risk of suffering a heart attack is only one part of Avandia’s risk profile.

Let's start with the bottom line: There are no healthy choices when it comes to fizzy or soft drinks. You probably heard about the recent study that found a link between soft drinks and increased heart disease risk. Well, that's just the surface. Look a little closer and you'll see the true risk is even worse. Worse than heart disease? Yes, even worse than heart disease, because heart disease is just part of the deal.
