For women, the daily consumption of two portions of diet drinks increases the risk of heart attack.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Daily consumption of two sugar-free soft drinks can increase by about a third the risk of heart attack or stroke.

In a study of more than 80,000 women, researchers found that women who regularly drank soft drinks were 31% more likely to have a stroke and a blood clot.

They are 29% more likely to develop heart disease and 16% more likely to die, compared to women who rarely drink sodas..

The researchers noted that this news might be unwelcome for those who use diet drinks as a healthy alternative to sugar.

Dr. Yasmin Mesfar Rahmani, lead author of the American Heart Association's study and the American Stroke Society, said: "Our research and other observational studies have shown that artificially sweetened beverages may not be harmful and that high consumption is associated with an increased risk of stroke and heart disease."He said.

In older women, the consumption of multiple dietary drinks a day was associated with an increased risk of stroke due to obstruction of the arteries, especially small arteries..
