[QUOTE="zand, post: 2084970, member: 85197"] A tax on sugar is just another way of getting money out of the public. If people want sugary drinks then they will still buy them. And why not? Some artificial sweeteners have been shown to cause fatty liver and therefore insulin resistance and therefore T2. It wasn't sugary drinks that caused my T2 because I stopped having them in my teens. So yes let's make evidence based decisions. It's not as simple as sugar has calories and calories make you fat. If only it was. I am T2 and currently taking a course of antibiotics that have changed my taste buds. I manage to take the tablets with a full glass of water but am very thirsty a lot of the time. I have reverted to sugary drinks as I have a bad reaction to artificial sweeteners. It's a case of just getting through what I have to get through however I can. [/QUOTE]
