00:00Think one can of Diet Coke a day is harmless?
00:02Think again.
00:03Your liver might not agree.
00:05Shocking new research has revealed that drinking just one fizzy drink a day,
00:09yes, even the diet ones,
00:11could dramatically raise your risk of a deadly liver disease called Masildi.
00:15This isn't about alcohol.
00:17Masild happens when fat builds up in your liver.
00:20And the numbers are rising fast.
00:22Researchers studied over 123,000 people in the UK.
00:26They found that those who drank sugary sodas had a 50% higher risk.
00:30But those drinking diet or sugar-free versions?
00:33A 60% higher risk.
00:35Yes, worse than the full sugar ones.
00:38Experts now warn that so-called healthier options like Diet Coke and Sprite Zero
00:42might be more dangerous than we thought.
00:45Even one can a day could silently damage your liver over time.
00:49Most people don't know they have Masildi until it's too late.
00:52So what's the safest option?
00:54Skip the soda.
00:55Drink water.
00:56It hydrates your body and protects your liver.
00:59Your daily can might not be as harmless as you think.
