A common misconception about sugary drinks has been debunked by Ghanaian dietician Nicholas Laryea. According to Laryea, diluting sugar-concentrated drinks with water does not decrease the sugar content, as many people believe.
This revelation may come as a surprise to those who thought they were making a healthier choice by adding water to their sugary beverages. However, Laryea’s expert advice makes it clear that this practice does little to reduce the amount of sugar consumed.
The warning comes as concerns about sugar consumption and its impact on public health continue to grow.
With many Ghanaians struggling with diet-related health issues, such as obesity and diabetes, Laryea’s advice serves as a timely reminder of the importance of being mindful of sugar intake.
As the debate about sugar consumption and public health continues, one thing is certain: Ghanaians must be aware of the sugar content in their drinks, regardless of whether they are diluted with water or not. By making informed choices, individuals can take the first step towards a healthier lifestyle.
