Equipped with the right knowledge, people who want to lose weight can use this to their advantage. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 71.6% of people in the United States aged 20 or older are overweight or have obesity. However, when it comes to losing weight, there are no quick fixes. Most often, weight loss involves changing eating, drinking, and exercise habits. Increasing daily activity levels and consuming the right amounts of high quality, nutrient dense foods can help a person lose weight. No specific drink leads to weight loss, but some drinks may support the necessary lifestyle changes. In this article, we look at drinks that may help people lose weight. We also investigate which drinks to avoid and give other weight loss tips. Drinks to avoid Experts have noted that people feel less full or satisfied after consuming calories in beverages, compared with those in solid foods. Authors of a study from 2006 reported that people in the U.S. who are older than 2 years consumed 21% of their calories in beverages, while many drinks offer very little nutritional value. Anyone looking to lose weight should avoid the following types of drinks: Sweetened soft drinks Full of calories and low in nutrients, sweetened, carbonated beverages such as sodas do not aid weight loss. A 12-ounce (oz) can of soda can contain around 10–13 teaspoons (tsp) of sugar, depending on the drink. Fruit juices and smoothies Fruit juices have some nutritional benefits. However, though the sugar in them is naturally derived, juices contain so much sugar that they add a lot of calories to the diet. A 12-oz serving of orange juice contains 10 tsp of sugar, while the same serving of a smoothie typically has even more sugar. When a person opts for juice, it is important to choose 100% fruit juice with no added sugar and to be mindful of portion sizes. Energy drinks Energy and sports drinks also deliver some benefits, but they are typically high in calories. The following figures are for 12 oz of each type of drink: sports drinks: 5–10 tsp of sugar energy drinks: 10–14 tsp of sugar Also, energy drinks often contain artificial sweeteners, which may not be healthful. Coffee shop drinks Rich drinks and sweetened teas can add plenty of sugar and calories to the diet. A 12-oz serving of iced tea can have 3–8 tsp of sugar. Coffee drinks often contain more sugar than the recommended amount for the whole day, which is 6 tsp for women and 9 tsp for men. Alcohol Alcohol does not mix well with weight loss for several reasons: Alcoholic drinks contain many calories — a 12-oz beer has 150 calories, while a 5-oz glass of white wine has 100 calories.
