This “Health Drink” Could KILL You

When it comes to a healthy diet, your mainstream doc is full of bad advice.
He will tell you to eat margarine… drink diet soda… and even load up on carb-heavy cereals.
Now, it’s happening again.
Because research shows that a certain “health drink” can dramatically increase your risk of DYING early.
And it could be in your fridge right now.
I’m talking about fruit juice.
And for years, the mainstream has been telling anyone who will listen that this sugary drink is good for you.
Now, we know it’s NOT… especially if you’re a senior.
A new study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) analyzed the health outcomes and weekly sugary beverage consumption (including 100% fruit juice) of 13,000 seniors.
At the end, the researchers found that folks who drank the most sugar-sweetened beverages had the highest risk of dying.
And after taking a closer look at the data, it was clear that for every additional 12-ounce serving of fruit juice increases your risk of dying by a WHOPPING 24 percent.
This is especially alarming because each 12-ounce serving of any other sugary drink (including soda) only increases your risk of dying by 11 percent.
Fruit juice is twice as dangerous as other sugary drinks because the main sugar in fruit is fructose – which is much more harmful than glucose.
Fructose increases inflammation… is much easier to convert into fat… does not suppress appetite… and even changes your metabolism.
When you combine all those actions, fructose leads to more heart disease, more stroke, more weight gain and more disease in general.
While the food industry and mainstream medicine have done a good job making fruit juice seem healthy, it is not.
Do what you can to stay away from ALL sugary drinks and choose water instead. Your body needs it!
