Just because you're not that overweight, just because you’re active, doesn't mean sugary drinks aren't doing damage to your insides. You can’t see visceral fat, the dangerous fat too much sugar creates that brings you closer to diseases.

VO: Just because you're not that overweight, just because you’re active, doesn't mean sugary drinks aren't doing damage to your insides. You can’t see visceral fat, the dangerous fat too much sugar creates. It builds up inside and wraps around your internal organs, bringing you closer to diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver and even cancer (Text: Diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver and cancer). Sugary drinks are making every body sick. Stay healthy and refreshed with water and fresh fruit instead. Text: Get your Healthy Eating Packet! Call 311 or search Sugary Drinks on NYC.GOV
