Question: Do you think drinking alot of soda and slurpees is worth the risk of getting diabetes?
I think it is.

I guess if I got diagnosed with diabetes I would cut down. Life is so short. If I stopped drinking stuff with sugar I bet I would regret it after I live to my 90's.

I also think its genetics.

Im not one of those people who can drink stuff without sugar or diet drinks.

I do drink water.

Lately im in the process of not drinking sugar drinks at home and only going to town and getting a slurpee. So that would cut down my sugar alot anyways.

Answers:

High consumption of sugar does not cause diabetes.

If you do not have a genetic predisposition for diabetes, you can drink all the soda you want and your body will still be able to metabolize it. You might get fat from the excess calories, but that won't give you diabetes either if you do not have the genetic predisposition for it.

On the other hand, if you are unlucky enough to have the genetic predisposition for diabetes, you can consume no sugar at all and you could still get diabetes.
