Do You Like Diet Soft Drinks?
Yet another study confirms what people have been saying for ages:
Though it's well-known that people who
consume a lot of sugar are more likely to develop diabetes, the
researchers found that participants who drank "light" or "diet" soft
drinks had a higher risk of developing Type 2 diabetes than those who
drank regular, sugar-filled sodas.
Stop drinking diet soda. Like, right now.
Drinking just one 12-ounce can of an artificially sweetened fizzy drink per week can increase your risk of Type 2 diabetes by 33 percent, French researchers found. And given that most people don't stop at a single weekly serving, your real risk for diabetes could actually be much higher.
Those who drank 100 percent natural
squeezed fruit juices instead
had no additional risk.
There's more and more information out there about the negative effects of diet soft drinks. Search the Web or check our OPPL databases for magazine or newspaper articles and find reliable sources...
then you can decide for yourself!
Be Informed!

Well, here are the results...READY
Say goodbye to the old fashioned iron
Following a month-long nationwide vote from fans, Hasbro took to the
Today show to announce that it will retire the iron from the game’s
iconic pieces, replacing it with a cat.
Some fans were worried about the fate of beloved tokens like
the pooch or the race car, neither was ever in danger of being
eliminated. (The Scottie dog, in fact, was the most popular token, with
29 percent of the vote to save it.) Hasbro says the boot, iron and
wheelbarrow were always in the red zone with players.
In fact, all three tokens were virtually tied for last place until
late Tuesday night, when iron haters pushed the appliance over the edge.
In
the end, just 8 percent of voters wanted to save the iron.
Fans were presented with five replacement token options,
including a helicopter, a diamond ring, a robot, a guitar, and a cat.
But this is was an Internet vote and voters can't seem to get enough of our feline friends.
