According to a study in Denmark, drank a liter of regular soda each day can increase the amount of fat in the liver, muscle, and around the organs in the abdomen. In another study, fat deposition has been associated with increased risk of diabetes and heart disease.
Our results suggest that the detrimental effects from soda sweetened beverages contribute to weight gain or increased fat stores.
The study has involved 47 people who are overweight or obese. In that study, the researchers asked the study participants to drink a quart of water, milk, diet cola, or cola on a regular basis every day for 6 months.
The study participants were selected in this study because the people who are overweight or obese would be more sensitive to dietary changes than people with normal weight.
At the end of the study group of regular cola drinkers have 25 percent more fat around the organs of the body a lot, and the amount of fat in the liver and muscles almost doubled.
The increase in fat deposits are at increased risk for developing metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and heart disease..
Metabolic syndrome is a group of health factors associated with increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. This type of fat group that has been studied by researchers in these studies is called ectopic fat.
Fat is considered more dangerous to the health of the body's metabolism as compared with subcutaneous fat. Subcutaneous fat is a type of fat accumulated under the skin.
Ectopic Fat obviously not healthy and induces dysfunction of the organs involved.
The results of these studies have strengthened the results of previous studies on the effects of soft drinks to obesity. The results of these studies have provided evidence to support recommendations for reduction in consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages.
