He explained that soft drinks increase the risk of high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis and diabetes, because they contain a high percentage of sugars and high calories.
He added that the same applies to canned juices, as they contain high sugars, which makes them harmful to the health of the body, especially the heart and blood vessels.
