Principal investigator Professor Keijiro Saku, Dean and professor of cardiology at Fukuoka University in Japan, says a positive correlation has been found between the consumption of soft drinks and the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and stroke in some epidemiologic studies. It has been observed in other studies that there is a decreased risk and mortality of CVD with consumption of green tea and coffee.

It has been known that there is an increased risk of metabolic syndrome and CVD with consumption of carbonated beverages, or sodas. This study has raised considerations of an association between drinking large quantities of carbonated beverages and fatal CVD or out-of-hospital cardiac arrests which are of cardiac origin. Professor Saku says that clearly beverage habits may have an impact on risk of fatal CVD.
