Teen Boys Consume Large Amounts of Sugary Drinks
 A recent national survey has found that the amount of sugar that teen boys consume from sodas, energy drinks, sweetened fruit juices and other sugary soft drinks on a daily basis exceeds the government recommendation for all daily sugar consumption by more than 200%.
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted from 2005 to 2008 found that sugar-laden drinks accounted for a mean of 273 calories in the daily diet of boys and young men from ages 12-19. Excess sugar in the diet of children and teenagers has been linked to obesity and a variety of future health problems in adulthood. Syfo Seltzer and Naturally Flavored Sparkling Waters are completely free of sugar, sodium, preservatives or artificial sweeteners and are a healthy, refreshing beverage alternative for children, teens and adults.

"I’ve been hooked on Syfos for years. It’s SO much better than other seltzers or expensive sparkling waters. We get it at our local Publix in Florida. When we first started buying it many years ago, they kept running out. We asked them if they could increase their stock, and they did! So if you don’t see it in your local store, just ask."
