Sugary Drinks & Hidden Calories: How They Sneak Into Your Diet

By Dr. Shruthi Thennati | Kayakalpa Clinic, Vadodara

When you think of sugar, you probably imagine desserts, chocolates, or mithai. But the real sugar overload often comes from something we don’t even notice — our drinks.

Where the Sugar Hides

  • Soft drinks: A single can may contain 8–10 teaspoons of sugar.
  • Packaged fruit juices: Marketed as “healthy,” but often loaded with added sugar.
  • Flavored teas & coffees: That caramel latte? Sometimes over 300 calories!
  • Energy drinks: A quick boost that spikes blood sugar and then crashes it.

Why It Matters

Excess sugar doesn’t just add calories — it drives obesity, diabetes, fatty liver, and heart disease. In fact, sugary drinks are one of the biggest contributors to insulin resistance in young adults.

Smarter Choices

  • Switch to water, lemon water, or buttermilk in summer.
  • Choose unsweetened tea/coffee or add just a dash of jaggery.
  • If you love juice, go for whole fruits instead.

Sugar-sweetened beverages may seem harmless, but over time, they’re fueling India’s rising lifestyle diseases. Cutting them out is one of the simplest, most powerful changes you can make for your health.

At Kayakalpa Clinic, Vadodara, we help patients reverse lifestyle conditions like diabetes, obesity, and high BP — starting with everyday choices like this.
