This can be attributed to several factors, which calls for possible solutions to be adopted. There are various reasons why an increasing number of people are turning to sugar-based beverages. One possible explanation is that because soft-drink companies heavily promote their products, several people can be constantly exposed to these advertisements and therefore be tempted to buy such drinks.
