A heart surgeon has branded one of the world’s most widely consumed drinks “liquid death”, declaring that people simply should not drink it “period”. Dr Jeremy London, who holds board certification in general surgery, vascular surgery and thoracic surgery, routinely shares health guidance via social media and interviews.
He is far from alone in sounding the alarm over the damaging effects of soft drinks on your health. In an Instagram post, Dr London outlined “four things I absolutely avoid as a heart surgeon”, citing smoking, alcohol, breads and pastas, and soft drinks.
