00:00It feels like we're constantly confused about what's healthy and what's not.
00:04One thing I think most people agree with is that sodas are not great for you.
00:08But what other drinks out there should we be drinking in moderation or not at all?
00:13If your goal is to put your health first, then reconsider energy drinks and pre-workout
00:18drinks.
00:19Fox News reports that because of their excess in caffeine and stimulants, they can also
00:24lead to increased blood pressure, stress and compromised sleep, in some cases even headaches
00:29and nausea.
00:30Drinks that combine alcohol and fructose syrup make it harder for your liver to filter
00:35out toxins and in turn risk storing fructose as fat.
00:39Careful with bottled or canned iced teas.
00:42Their added sugars can be as high as those found in sodas.
00:46Healthline says agave syrup may be the least healthy sweetener in the world.
00:50Agave is pretty much high fructose corn syrup with a glorified label.
00:55Frappuccinos are not recommended because of the combination of sugar from syrups and
00:59flavors and saturated fats from its cream.
01:02Keep a safe distance from frozen lattes as well and of course sodas.
