WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Sometimes you just can beat an ice cold, refreshing fizzy soda, but we've long known sugary drinks aren't the best choice for good health. However, researchers now say they're learning more about why they're so bad for your body.

"People in the study put on 1.8 pounds of fat in their stomach alone," said NovantHealth's board-certified internist and obesity specialist Dr. Gwen Wigand-Bolling. "Visceral fat is very dangerous because it's the fat that wraps around your organs, the pancreas, the liver, the heart."
