Can a Sugary-Drink Habit Harm Your Brain?

Recent "observational" studies show consistently that drinking sugary drinks regularly is associated with signs of brain aging or declining memory. In addition, other multiple studies show frequently drinking artificially-sweetened (diet) beverages is related to greater risks of stroke and dementia.

Many of these studies are still "observational" so they can't prove cause and effect. That being said, there is still a lot of evidence pointing to sugar-sweetened beverages associated with metabolic disease like heart disease, abdominal obesity and fatty liver.

In conclusion, research scientists continue to warn us drinking sugary beverages in excess or on a regular basis might NOT effect the brain, but they certainly are still unhealthy and consumption should be limited or avoided.
Scientists say how to approach diet drinks is less clear. There has been some previous evidence that higher consumption of artificially-sweetened beverages is linked to development of metabolic disease, such as type 2 diabetes. There are conflicting things with this one too.

One of the greatest challenges in studying how artificially-sweetened beverages links to life threatening diseases is scientists cannot prove if the harm is due to the sweeteners themselves or to some other underlying health issue that have prompted people to choose them over regular sugar.

What scientists do tell us is the evidence of artificially- sweetened beverages is limited, however, we still need to be cautious in consuming "too many" artificially-sweetened drinks. Studies are ongoing.
Some studies point to a higher intake of fruit-based beverages being associated with Alzheimer's-like brain changes and memory loss. It is unknown how many of these drinks had added sugar.

Bottom line warnings still are to avoid a high intake of sugar in liquid from any source. Your best bet with fruit drinks is most likely making  your own fruit drinks without added sugar, or purchasing fruit drinks you know for certain has "no added sugar."
There is a great nutritious no sugar added drink I highly recommend and use on a daily basis. That is, the Life's Abundance Mineral and Antioxidant drink. You can drink one 16 ounce serving per day in the place of other high sugar sports and energy drinks.

It quenches thirst as well and helps you reach recommended daily intake of water plus other healthy ingredients such as 11 nutrient rich super fruits like acai, cranberry, goji, maqui and pomegranate ... making this a high ORAC beverage blend. ORAC stands for oxygen radical absorbance capacity and it's a way of measuring the antioxidant level, which is important because antioxidants are essential to good health.
This drink is:

  • Non GMO
  • Gluten free
  • Vegan
  • Soy free
  • Dairy free
  • Naturally flavored
  • No added sugar
  • No artificial flavors
  • No artificial colors
  • No artificial preservatives

Americans are deficient in minerals. In fact, way back in 1936, the Department of Agriculture told congress that 99% of the population was deficient. Regrettably, there are many more recent studies confirming varying amounts of mineral deficiencies in our diet, mainly due to their depletion in our soil.
We need minerals! Vitamins cannot work properly without them and they are absolutely vital to maintain our mental and physical well being. Since the body cannot manufacture minerals, they must come from our diet.
Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants drink mix is a delicious way to supplement your diet.
This unique mix is made with a variety of freshly harvested sea vegetables and contains approximately 74-plant based, naturally chelated, trace minerals. For an additional nutritional boost, it also contains antioxidants from 11 nutrient-rich super fruits like acai, cranberry, goji, maqui and pomegranate ... making this a high ORAC beverage blend. ORAC stands for oxygen radical absorbance capacity and it's a way of measuring the antioxidant level, which is important because antioxidants are essential to good health.
Unlike many liquid water enhancers made from chemicals, our formula is made with coconut water and aloe vera and it does not contain any added sugar, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. The organic coconut water replaces electrolytes plus it is alkalizing, which helps to restore a natural pH balance in the body and counters the effects of an acidic diet.
Instead of giving you a sugar crash like most other “health” drinks, our Minerals & Antioxidants mix gives you sustained energy.
