Sweetened Drinks Linked to Depression in U.S. Soda Study
Drinking more than four sweetened beverages a day, especially diet soda, doesn’t appear to be good for one’s mood, a study by the U.S. National Institutes of Health found.
In a study of more than 200,000 older adults, those who drank more than four cans of soda a day had a 30 percent greater risk of depression than those who consumed none. The same amount of fruit punch was tied to a 38 percent higher risk, according to research released today by the American Academy of Neurology. The risk was even greater for people who consumed diet drinks, whether soda, punch or iced tea.

One beverage, though, had an opposite effect. Coffee was found to lessen a person’s chance of developing the mood disorder.
People who drank four cups of coffee each day had about a 10 percent lower risk of developing depression than those who didn’t consume coffee, the research found. Chen said coffee contains large amounts of caffeine, which is a brain stimulant.
