Bubble tea okay once in a while
Published on: Sunday, July 21, 2019
I AM writing to express my concern about the negative effects of bubble tea.
Nutritionists say bubble tea is the worst drink ever because it contains a lot of sugar and trans-fat. A lot of people drink it everyday. This may cause diabetes.
Research has shown that a cup of bubble tea with regular sweetness contains 34g of sugar.
The amount of sugar that we should consume per days is 50g. But after drinking a cup of bubble tea, we will exceed the amount of sugar that we should take daily.

Imagine if you take a cup of bubble tea every day.
Not only can it cause diabetes, but it can also cause obesity and remain in your intestines longer as it takes time to break it down. Bubble tea also contains trans-fat, which will raise the bad cholesterol level.
Trans-fat increases the risk of getting heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

It is okay if you drink bubble tea once in a while, but you need to know how much you should consume.
A healthy exterior starts from the inside.
