my go to drink for pancreatic terrorism as of late is Dunkin Donut's Caramel Creme Frozen Coffee - Large at 172g of sugar per serving
I can't believe it's even legal to sell those. That seems simply insane.
At least with cigarettes there was a public nuisance argument because of the smell and also the secondhand effect. I dont find general public health a compelling argument for restricting sugar.
It would be interesting to analyze a dataset of commercially sold prepared "coffee" drinks from vendors like Starbucks to see how many are actually coffee, versus coffee-flavored soft drinks, and how this changed over the last few decades.

How do the long term low dose adderall and Ritalin people do?
Absolutely fine if used for ADHD, but it’s not the same question because the effects on people without ADHD are different.
Given that this is an association study, I like to interpret it as if you drink coffee and you often add sweetener, you may be more likely to develop type w diabetes than others who drink coffee and don't add sweetener. Not adding sweetener because it's associated with type 2 diabetes is probably less protective than being the type of person who naturally didn't add sweeteners. Sugar in my soda, cream in my coffee th…
Except that the change in the impact also happened with artificial sweetener.
