Sweetened Milk Drinks Now Linked to Type 2 Diabetes (Medscape)

There is a link between consumption of sweetened milk drinks and type 2 diabetes, indicating that efforts to reduce intake of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) should be extended to include milkshakes and flavored milk. "Past research typically thought of SSBs as soft drinks such as fizzy drinks, colas, squashes, and juice drinks, but the new study raises the possibility that the habitual daily consumption of sweetened milk drinks is also related with a higher risk of new-onset diabetes as per Nita Forouhi, MRCP, PhD, from the University of Cambridge School of Clinical Medicine, United Kingdom. For each 5% increase of a person's total energy intake provided by sweet drinks, the risk of developing type 2 diabetes may increase by 18%. And replacing the daily consumption of one serving of a sugary drink with either water or unsweetened tea or coffee can lower the risk of developing diabetes by between 14% and 25%.

Type 2 diabetes risk was with per serving per day of 1.21 for soft drinks, 1.22 for sweetened-milk beverages, and 1.22 for artificially sweetened drinks, but there were null associations for sweetened tea and coffee (0.98) and for fruit juice (1.01).
