According to estimates by the National Health Administration, there are more than 2.3 million diabetics in Taiwan. In this regard, nephrologist Wang Jieli also quoted the latest research that pointed out that patients with type 2 diabetes who drink more than 1 serving (150 kcal) of sugary drinks per day increase the risk of death by 20%. And drinking coffee, tea and water will reduce the risk of death by about 20%.

Dr. Wang Jieli is atfacebook pageto quoteBritish Medical Journal(British Medical Journal) recently published a study that explored the relationship between drinking items and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes. The study was prospective and followed more than 150,000 Americans for an average of 18.5 years.

Wang Jieli pointed out that the results of the study are not surprising. Drinking sugary drinks will increase the overall risk of death. Drinking more than 1 serving (150 calories) of sugary drinks per day will increase the risk of death by an average of 20%. And drinking coffee, tea and water, will reduce the risk of death. Drinking more than 4 servings of coffee, more than 2 servings of tea, and more than 5 servings of water a day have similar effects in reducing the risk of death, and they are all reduced by about 20%. Therefore, “water seems to be no more effective than tea and coffee. Therefore, It doesn’t have to be just water.”

As for the impact of sugar substitute drinks and fruit juices, it is neutral, neither good nor bad. Wang Jieli said that studies have also confirmed that replacing sugary drinks with sugar substitute drinks can effectively reduce the risk of death. And sugar substitutes are replaced by coffee, tea and water, the risk of death will be further reduced.”

Another thing worth noting is milk. Wang Jieli pointed out that low-fat milk has a better prognosis, while whole milk is the opposite. However, because the statistical confidence area exceeds 1 (mainly full-fat), no definite conclusion can be made, so two points The conclusion of the law can only say that milk is roughly neutral.
