Women should be careful with carbonated drinks, since even moderate consumption of them increases the risk of stroke by more than 80%, writes Daily Mail.

The publication refers to scientists from the University of Osaka (Japan), who conducted a study among almost 40,000 volunteers. Among them were both men and women from 40 to 59 years old. Observations were conducted for 18 years, during which 2 thousand people suffered a stroke.

It turned out that those women who drank at least a glass of soda per day, were more often victims of this disease. According to experts, the risk of ischemic stroke in drinkers of soda is increased by 83%. This pattern applies exclusively to the fair sex: such a harmful effect on the male body does not have a soda.
