Many of these popular pre-mixed beverages have very high added sugar content that can add up quickly and lead to health complications such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, various cancers and liver damage. These drinks aren’t legally mandated to divulge the nutritional content on the label, therefore be cautious and practice moderation.
