Soft drinks are generally devoid of any nutritional value. They just sweetened water body fat in inappropriate places, reported rodale.com.

Soft drinks don’t have nutritional value

Research scientists show that drinking soft drinks can leads to dramatic increases in fat around the liver and skeletal muscle. This can lead to insulin resistance and diabetes.
U.S. study shows that people who drink soda every day for six months, have from 132% to 142% increase of fat in the liver from 117 percent to 122 percent increase in fat around the bone, and 30% increase in triglyceride levels. This consumption has contributed to 11% increase in cholesterol compared to those who drank other drinks like water and milk.
Even so-called diet drinks dramatically increase the width of the waist.

8 Dangers of Drinking Diet Soda
Research Center for Health Sciences at the University of Texas, USA, showed disappointing results. Scientists have observed over 475 people for 10 years. The results showed that those who drank diet soft drinks had an average 70% increase in the waist compared to those who did not drink any. People who drank two diet drinks a day had to do 500% increased fat around the waist.
Another study by the same team conducted on laboratory mice with aspartame, an artificial sweetener that increases the blood sugar, showed that people weight gain when glucose in the liver is too much, because the excess is converted into body fat. I.e. excessive consumption of soft drinks with aspartame also causes obesity.
