In the News: Teen violence linked to heavy soda consumption


 
You may want to start watching how much soda you're consuming, girl, and how much those around you are too. New studies have shown that teens consuming more than 14 cans of soda a week (that's just two per day!) have become more violent and are at higher risk for acting out among peers and parents. Just think: By cutting back on the fizzy stuff you may be able to cut back on the drama in your life. Crazy, right?

This week, breitbart.com posted that researchers have recently discovered the connection between carbonated sodas and rising teen violence. It was proven that teens who drink large amounts of soda every week were 9-15% more likely to engage in aggressive or violent behavior. Pretty scary to think that soda could be the root cause of your school¹s latest catfight.

Due to the recent findings, many more studies will be held in order to find out which sodas have a higher risk of violence when consumed. We'll keep ya posted when we know which sips are the worst for you and your friends.

Do you think soda makes ya go bananas? Blog it out, babes.

Ohhh... 9-15%!!! What a terrifying statistic. Talk to me when it's 80%. Are you kidding me?

THATS SO TRUE. I've never thought about it. I've seemed kind of angry these past few weeks for no real reasons... besides thinking it's my period! Haha, but I drink Sprite?

Yeah I guess it's kind of believable

No, it doesn't make people crazy. Many people have been told that sugar makes you hyper, when, in fact that ISN'T true!! Sugar DOES NOT make you hyper!! there are different foods for everyone that makes you hyper/act crazy. So yeah, when your friends start acting hyped up and blame it on sugar, that's wrong!! because they've only been told that it does, and they've seen other people doing it so it's their natural first thought.
