Do you drink soda? I know most people have at least one a day. The main ingredient in soda is high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and in a recent study participants that drank soda had an increase in triglyceride levels and your LDL (That’s the bad cholesterol).

Americans’ have made soda a regular part of their diets. HFCS has been linked to Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolic Syndrome. The scary part of all this is HFCS is easily metabolized in your fat more than any other sugar.

You may want to consider drinking more water at your next meal and through out the day.
