A study from the Cleveland Clinic’s Wellness
Institute and Harvard University concluded that, as you’d expect, drinking lots
of soda is linked to a higher risk of stroke.
Is it the sugar, something else in the
soda, or just the fact that people who drink lots of soda probably have lots of
other risk factors (many probably undetermined by researchers) for stroke?
No one knows, of course, but drinking lots
of pop can’t possibly be good for you.
But here’s the kicker: the same study found
that drinking coffee was linked to a lower risk of stroke, just another
indication as I keep insisting that coffee is the ultimate health drink.
