Not all Sugary Treats are Created Equal: How Your Choice of Sweet Treats Impacts Your Health

A recent systematic review has shed light on the impact of different sugary treats on metabolic health. The study, which analyzed data from over half a million adults worldwide, revealed that consuming sugar-sweetened beverages or fruit juice may increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Contrary to popular belief, the research also found that dietary sugar was actually associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. This suggests that not all sugar sources are equally harmful to your health.

Lead researcher Karen Della Corte from Brigham Young University emphasized the importance of understanding the differences in sugar sources, stating, “It highlights why drinking your sugar – whether from soda or juice – is more problematic for health than eating it.”

The study highlighted the varying risks associated with different sugar sources. While sucrose and total sugar were linked to a lower risk of type 2 diabetes, sugar-sweetened beverages and fruit juice were found to increase the risk. Each additional serving of a soft drink was associated with a 25% higher risk, while fruit juice increased the risk by 5%.

The researchers also pointed out the importance of considering the context in which sugars are consumed. They noted that whole fruits provide fiber content that supports better blood glucose regulation, unlike fruit juice which lacks fiber and can have a similar glycemic impact as sugar-sweetened beverages.

Overall, the study suggests that without a foundation of nutrient-dense foods, certain types of sweet treats may pose a greater risk to metabolic health. Future nutrition guidelines should take into account the different effects of various sugar sources to provide more tailored recommendations.
