I was riding the NYC subway this morning when I saw this poster from the NYC Department of Health & Mental Hygiene. It serves as a fantastic reminder about the impact of sugary drinks on your body – I am a huge fan of “shock” advertising!
The report has some great advice:
- Drink plenty of water
- Choose fat-free or 1% milk
- Switch from juice to whole fruit
- Skip sports drinks and “energy” drinks
- Watch out for coffee and tea drinks and shakes (aka the crappuccinos!)
