Soda Consumption May Speed Up Aging

New research suggests that consuming sugary drinks may be associated with cell aging.
Researchers at the University of California-San Francisco found that daily consumption of a 20-ounce soda was associated with 4.6 years of additional biological aging. They also found that telomeres, the protective units of DNA that cap the ends of chromosomes in cells, were shorter in the white blood cells of survey participants who reported drinking more soda.
"Regular consumption of sugar-sweetened sodas might influence disease development, not only by straining the body's metabolic control of sugars, but also through accelerated cellular aging of tissues," Elissa Epel, senior author of the study and professor of psychiatry, said in a statement. "This finding held regardless of age, race, income and education level. Telomere shortening starts long before disease onset. Further, although we only studied adults here, it is possible that soda consumption is associated with telomere shortening in children, as well.".............Read more: http://www.universityherald.com/articles/13232/20141124/soda-consumption-may-speed-up-aging.htm#ixzz3K8bm6O6z
