Carbonated drinks more dangerous than smoking?

Type carbonated drinks Coca Cola, Pepsi, Fanta, etc. are high in sugar as fructose or corn syrup, which is a major contributor to increasing rates of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and other chronic diseases. So when they say that drinking a soda is just as bad as smoking a cigarette (even worse) is not an exaggeration.

              Carbonated soft drinks are as bad as smoking for humans, but due to massive marketing campaigns made these drinks are acceptable for members of our society who are most vulnerable children. In the 21st century is a scandal if the tobacco companies would take in their target children, but companies that sell soft drinks do this every day without any problems.

              Many people wonder how bad could it be to drink a can of Coke or Pepsi. It seems that there is no reason why we big people drink it, and about children not even discuss. Just say if you're stuck in a desert and not have anything else at hand than a Coke bottle, then maybe it would go, otherwise nothing, zero. No soft drinks and fructose. There are no excuses. In terms of health, drinking a glass of cola or other carbonated soft drink is a disaster. Just drink a bottle of carbonated drink every day for a year can bring a surplus of 8 kg in weight and we increase our risk of diabetes by 85%. The main reason that these drinks are so dangerous for us is that the fructose they contain. The amount of fructose that a person could consume in one day was unfortunately poorly estimated. Approximately 100 years ago a person consumes about 15 grams of fructose per day and this mainly in the form of fruit. Today only one quarter of the U.S. population consumes more than 135 grams of fructose per day and this coming from juice. 15 grams of fructose per day are safe if the person does not suffer from high levels of uric acid. But when this amount increases by about 10 times, this new result value is a major cause of obesity and nearly all chronic degenerative diseases. Many brands of soft drinks including Coca Cola, Pepsi and Sprite contain more fructose than that he's said. So instead contain 55% fructose and 45% glucose, they contain around 65% to about 20% more than is stated on the label. According to a study of 23 varieties of soft drinks, juices tested had a 59% fructose content much higher than the stated percentage of industries producing these juices. When you think that an American drinks about 215 liters of juice per year, this difference in fructose content can make a big difference in terms of health.

              While carbonated beverages producing industries strongly support that there is no link between fructose and various forms of disease or obesity, scientists have come to other conclusions. Dr. David Ludwig of Children's Hospital in Boston conducted a study on the impact of sugar and sweetened drinks have on children's health. In the study he concluded that each extra glass of sweet drink, both body mass index and obesity rates have increased in each child studied. Another UK study explored the effects of obesity when juices and soda machines were removed from school for a period of one year. In schools where the cars were removed, obesity remained constant and in schools in which cars were functional during the year, obesity has increased. In a study done in 2009 on 16 volunteers they were fed a controlled diet that also contained high amounts of fructose. After 10 weeks, volunteers November produsesera fat cells around the heart, liver and digestive organs. They also showed signs of abnormal processing of food which had close links with diabetes and heart disease. A second group of volunteers who were fed the same diet but with glucose instead of fructose had no such reactions as volunteers in the first group.
