Drinking just one soda a day is likely to significantly increase the risk of heart disease, as well as obesity and diabetes. This according to the latest review of available science, published in the journal of the American College of Cardiology.
Yet the same organization that publishes this journal, the organization of 43,000 physicians and other cardiovascular professionals, is accepting millions of dollars from Coca Cola, as a "partnership".
This was revealed last week in Coca Cola's transparency report. The payments from 2010 total 3.2 million dollars, including a payment of $450,000 this year:
Coca Cola even brags on their website about the collaboration: Coca Cola: Meet Our Partners: American College of Cardiology
I find this mindboggling and simply not acceptable, so I wrote a review on the ACC Facebook page. If you agree with me feel free to write your own review, or like mine so that it appears higher in the listing.
