Health Issue Related to Excess Consumption of Soft Drink: Obesitypaperpublications3
Abstract: Soft drink consumption has expanded rapidly in our daily life so that soft drinks are currently become choice for millions of people and the largest single contributors to energy intake. Indian beverage market is 21% and Indian ranked 3rd largest beverage consumption after the USA and China. In India every year beverage consumption is nearly 120 billion litters. Consumption of sugar-sweetened drinks increase the risk of overweight, diabetes and cardiometabolic disease. Soft drinks have consequently been targeted as a means to help curtail the rising prevalence of obesity, particularly among children. Several factors might account for this increased risk, including increased carbohydrate load and increased amounts of dietary fructose. Fructose acutely increases thermogenesis, triglycerides and lipogenesis as well as blood pressure.
Foods for diabetes patients in India_pdf.pdfSUMIT SHARMA
As we know, diabetes mellitus (especially type 2) is a lifestyle disease because it mainly occurs due to poor lifestyle habits such as eating excess carbohydrates or high-calorie foods and physical inactivity.
Eating excess carbohydrates causes insulin resistance, which is the main reason for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
You can reverse your diabetes (or insulin resistance) by simply changing your diet and exercising.
This non-pharmacological management of diabetes mellitus (such as diet modification and exercise) is the gold standard treatment for diabetes.
Diabetes mellitus is not managed solely with the use of medicines or insulin. You must change your diet and start exercising whether you have newly detected diabetes or existing chronic diabetes.
If you have diabetes; you should avoid high glycaemic carbohydrates such as monosaccharides and disaccharides. These cabs foods have a high glycemic index.
In diabetic conditions, you must consider non-glycemic carbohydrates such as oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. They have a low glycemic index.
Therefore, you should consider those foods which have low carbs, low glycemic index, less glycemic load and do not spike blood sugar.
Here, I have made a list of food for diabetic patients in India.
1. Protein diet for diabetes
2. Unsaturated fat diet for diabetes
3. Best vegetables for diabetes
4. Best fruits for sugar patients
5. Seeds and dry fruits for diabetic patients
6. Best rice for diabetics
7. Whole grains for diabetes
8. Low-fat dairy products for diabetes
9. Best pulses for diabetes
10. Beverages for diabetes

Therapeutic effect of fenugreek seed on the patients suffering from diabetes ...Alexander Decker
This journal article discusses a study on the therapeutic effects of fenugreek seeds on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. 108 patients were divided into 3 groups that consumed different amounts of fenugreek seed powder daily for 6 weeks. Blood glucose levels were measured at regular intervals. The results showed that higher daily doses of fenugreek seeds (10-15g) significantly lowered patients' fasting and post-meal blood glucose levels compared to the lowest dose (5g), supporting the hypothesis that diets high in soluble fiber can reduce blood glucose levels in diabetics.
Obesity- Tipping Back the Scales of the Nation 19th April, 2017mckenln
Dr. Charlotte Evans presented on curbing sugar consumption in the UK. She reviewed evidence that high intakes of free sugars, especially from sugar-sweetened beverages, promote weight gain and type 2 diabetes. New UK recommendations suggest limiting free sugars to 5% of total energy intake, compared to current intakes that are over twice that level. Effective policy approaches to reduce sugar intake include taxes on sugar-sweetened beverages, restrictions on food marketing to children, and product reformulation by the food industry to lower sugar and portion sizes.
The document discusses policies that can help reduce sugar consumption to meet WHO guidelines. It provides examples of policies that have successfully reduced the availability of sugary products, increased the acceptability of alternatives, and raised awareness of sugar content. These include school nutrition standards in Australia that eliminated high-sugar "red" foods and drinks from schools, front-of-package labels in the Netherlands that led food companies to reformulate products, and soda taxes in Mexico and France that made sugary drinks less affordable.
The document discusses policies to reduce sugar consumption globally in order to address rising rates of obesity and related diseases. It provides examples of policies that have successfully influenced the availability, affordability, acceptability, and awareness of sugar.

1) Low glycemic index (GI) diets can help with weight management and reducing risk of heart disease by increasing satiety and reducing subsequent food intake.
2) Studies found that low GI breakfasts led to lower lunch energy intake in children and reduced appetite and increased satiety over 6 days compared to high GI meals.
3) Glycemic index is a key factor in diabetes management as it classifies carbohydrates based on their effects on blood glucose levels, and prescribing low GI diets can help with tight blood glucose control.

6. 2.Literature review
● One of the most difficult public health issues of the twenty-first century is diabetes mellitus
(DM). Over 366 million people are currently affected by it worldwide, and by 2030, that
number is expected to double. (Shaw JE, Sicree RA,2013)
● Whether a patient has diabetes, hypoglycaemia, or another sugar issue is ultimately determined
by the pancreas' ability to produce insulin and glucagon. (Ludwig DS, et al.2004)
● Low- and middle-income countries bear the heaviest burden of this disease, which affects
about 80% of the world's population. (Ping Zhang XZ,2010)
● Ayurvedic doctors in India discovered that there were at minimum two varieties of diabetes by
the fifth century, including Type 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile onset diabetes, which
develops in young people, and Type 2 diabetes, which affects adults and is linked to obesity
(Type 2 diabetes).( Poretsky, L. (ed) ,2005)
7. ● When nutrients are added to beverages, they can effectively deliver those nutrients to different sections of the
body when consumed with meals (Pszczola, 1998).
● India is the second biggest market for sugary beverages. The presence of easily available sugar-sweetened
beverages increasing can be seen in local supermarkets and online websites as well as roadside Dhaba’s and
hotels. (Am J Clin Nutr 2006)
● Juice consumption on a regular basis will raise blood sugar levels, causing the graph of your blood sugar to
spike excessively before falling. Fruit consumption is very healthy for gut bacteria and has no negative effects.
Sweetened beverages can cause fast spikes in blood sugar levels among those who have diabetic or
hyperglycaemia (including prediabetes and diabetes mellitus), thus they should be avoided.(Frank B. Hu, 2010)
● The fruit drinks spotlighted a dominating share of 66 percent in 2021 however the increasing awareness about
just the declining health due to these drinks is expected to drop the market over the coming five years,
according to a report published in April 2022 by market research company (Reya Mehrotra,2022)
● Juice consumption on a regular basis will raise blood sugar levels, causing the graph of your blood sugar to
spike excessively before falling. Fruit consumption is very healthy for gut bacteria and has no negative effects.
Sweetened beverages can cause fast spikes in blood sugar levels among those who have diabetic or
hyperglycaemia (including prediabetes and diabetes mellitus), thus they should be avoided.(Frank B. Hu, 2010
8. Raw materials :
Wheat Dextrin Soluble fibers such as wheat dextrin, can stimulate pancreatic insulin release and may interfere with glycogen breakdown. Because of that,
blood glucose levels can be decrease. Dextrin has been shown to reduce post prandial blood sugars in healthy subjects and reduce fasting
blood sugars in type 2 diabetics
Inulin powder Any carb that the body cannot digest is considered to be fiber. It enters the colon, where it acts as food for the bacteria, after passing through
the intestines unharmed. Insulin slows digestion, particularly carbohydrate digestion. This permits sugar to be released gradually rather than in
a burst, resulting in healthy blood glucose (S. Karger AG, Basel. 2015)
Malic acid It generates chemical energy that is primarily needed for controlling how much energy is produced, reducing physical discomfort,
detoxification, and maintaining oral hygiene. (Delgado-Ruiz RA et al., 2013).
Tricalcium phosphate Tricalcium phosphate plays a variety of functions in food fortification. Tricalcium Phosphate is a powdered or granulated material additive
used to avoid lump formation (caking) and to structural qualities, transportation, flowability, and consumption (Luck and von Rymon
Lipinski, 2002)(Jill Frank 2021)
Apple flavour polyphenols, which are plant components present in apples, may decrease glucose digestion and reduce blood sugar levels. Apples have a low
glycaemic index (GI) and a low glycaemic load (GL), (Yoona Kim, Jennifer B. Keogh,2016
Gum Arabic A source of soluble fibre, gum acacia can be used in beverages at relatively high levels without negative impact on the finished product, gives
mouthfeel and add viscosity Gum Arabic A functional hydrocolloid for beverages (Anita Benech,2008)
Vitamin C Citric acid and ascorbic acid are added to make the tastes "sharper," as well as to function both preservatives as well as antioxidants. Used as a
nutrient fortificant (Mirza et al., 2017).
Stevia Stevia to impart sweet taste which is safe for people with diabetes to use as a substitute for sugar and other sweeteners. (Avicenna J
Phytomed,2020)
Caramel colour 150d Food colour (150d) added to food to make it more appealing, appealing, and delicious (Khodjaeva et al., 2013).
9. 3. Research Gap
1. Existing product in health drink category in the market in health/
refreshment drink segment is selling products sugar free but with artificial
sweeteners replacing it with natural sweeteners would grab consumers
attention.
2. Added sugar alternatives are artificial sweeteners. Stevia Is used hence
improves blood circulation and to control blood sugar.
3. Innovative flavor like apple introduced makes great addition to the busy life
style along with apple benefits Under the refreshment category.
4. Ingredients added are diabetic friendly.
5. Vitamin C fortification and addition of dietary fibers to enhance nutrient
content.
10. 4. Problem statement
Is any instant refreshment drink mix is available for
diabetic patients rich with vitamin c and dietary fibers ?

21. 7.Conclusion
● As per the sensory analysis sample B has the overall highest acceptance in appearance, aroma,
Texture & mouthfeel.
● As per the Paired similarity test 65% people said that there is not difference between two
samples.
● According to the finding of the analysis done for Titrable acidity three of the formulas were in
moderate acidic pH and has normal acidity. In four of the formulas, T1 is slightly acidic and
imparted a little sour taste.
● microbial safety analysis was done on the day of the final formulation there was no yeast and
E. coli, as well as coliform, were present hence it was safe to consume
● Vitamin C and dietary fibers RDA% is fulfilled
● Moisture content of the premixes were less and within the limits which will give the
formulated final product more shelf life. The expected shelf life of the premix is around 10-20
months.
● The final product of the instant apple mix drink is safe to consume and helps in blood sugar
control.
22. Future scope
1. Shelf-life Study
2. Vitamins retention Study
3. Use of Natural Sources - To find the alternative ingredients for
synthetically derived and used such as malic acid, tricalcium
phosphate, and colors
4. Clinical Trials - Clinical trials can be performed to identify GI and
impact of consumption.
