"Diet'' soft drinks linked to premature births


'Diet'' soft drinks linked to premature birthsLondon, Aug 19 : Drinking lots of artificially sweetened beverages during pregnancyincreases the risk of premature births, according to a new study.
The study, conducted on almost 60,000 pregnant women in Denmark, found that those who drank artificially sweetened soft drinks, whether fizzy or still, were more likely to give birth early.
Researchers found that those who drank one serving per day of artificially sweetened fizzy drink were 38 per cent more likely to give birth before 37 weeks gestation and those who consumed four servings a day were 78 per cent more likely to have their baby prematurely.
The effect was weaker for still artificially soft drinks and there was no link between premature birth and sugar-sweetened drinks, they said.
Researchers think that the artificial sweeteners are broken down in the body into chemicals, which may change the womb.
