Type 2 Diabetes

Did you know that drinking only one soda or sugary drink a day could increase your risk of getting type 2 diabetes? I definitely did not know this.

The NPR warns that even if a person is “skinny and normal-weight,” they could still be at risk from what they drink and how often they workout. Click here to read this article.
