0 Comments

There's probably a lot more sugar in your favorite drink than you think. Americans drink their sugar for a hit of energy in the morning, throw back some more to keep them going in the afternoon, and often polish off dinner with a favorite sugary beverage. So how much are you drinking?

Below we have calculated total sugars in the most popular size (20 ounces) of 12 common beverages. You'll also see how many pounds of sugar that equals if you enjoy just one of your favorite beverages each day.

Surprised?
The sugars add up quicker than you think. If you drink one of these a day, you're increasing your risk of obesity, diabetes, stroke, and other serious health problems. It you drink more than one of these a day, it's time for an intervention. Drink more water!
