When someone's trying to lose weight, one of the first steps they usually take is switching from full-sugar soda to the diet kind. But that might not be enough, one study shows -- cutting out all soda is the healthiest choice.According to findings from extensive research done in the US, drinking even one diet soda a day can greatly increase your chances of developing metabolic syndrome, which can lead to a heart attack and diabetes. What's more, compared to those who drank less than one soda a day, those who drank one or more were at a 30% greater risk becoming obese and had a 25% greater chance of developing high cholesterol. Yikes!
The healthiest soda is no soda -- drink water instead!
