🥤🍺 Soda and alcohol are not equivalent "indulgences" from a health standpoint. At a Harvard Chan discussion, experts argued the case against sugar-sweetened beverages is relatively straightforward: versus water, coffee, or tea, soda consistently loses, given links to obesity and diabetes. Alcohol is more complex - low-level intake may show cardiovascular benefit in some observational data, but it also raises cancer risk, and much of its real-world burden comes from dependence, injuries, and crashes. For clinicians, the takeaway is practical counseling over blanket slogans: less soda, less alcohol, more water.
