Abstract in brief

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that consuming a lot of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) is linked to higher systolic blood pressure (SBP) and a greater risk of developing hypertension in children and adolescents.
The study analyzed data from 14 studies with nearly 94,000 participants and showed that high SSB intake is associated with a significant increase in SBP and a 36% higher likelihood of developing hypertension; however, the effect on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was not significant.
The analysis revealed a dose-response relationship, indicating that as SSB consumption increases, so does the risk of higher SBP and hypertension, supporting the idea that reducing sugary drink intake could help lower blood pressure in young people.
