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:

1. Drink plenty of water
2. Choose fat-free or 1% milk
3. Switch from juice to whole fruit
4. Skip sports drinks and “energy” drinks
5. Watch out for coffee and tea drinks and shakes (aka the crappuccinos!)

I’m a big fan of “reality advertising” – check this one out and let me know what you think by leaving a comment below!
