Previous research has linked daily consumption of these sugary  beverages to an increased risk of diabetes, even apart from excessive  weight gain.<br \/>\nThe researchers, using the Coronary Heart Disease  (CHD) Policy Model, a well-established  computer simulation model of the national population age 35 and older,  estimated the additional disease caused by the drinks  has increased coronary heart disease healthcare costs by 300-550 million  U.S. dollars between 2000-2010. This figure likely underestimates the  true costs because it does not account for the increased costs  associated with the treatment and care of patients with diabetes alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new study, reported by the American Heart
