Are There Any Toxicological Studies on Sugar-Sweetened Beverages?
Numerous studies have investigated the health impacts of SSBs. Epidemiological studies have shown a strong correlation between SSB consumption and increased risk of metabolic syndrome and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Toxicologists are particularly interested in the role of fructose, a common component in SSBs, in promoting liver fat accumulation and insulin resistance.
