The health warnings over the dangers of sugar<\/a> is not new: it\u2019s been linked to heart disease, diabetes, obesity, depression - the list goes on. <\/p>

However, if you\u2019re still not entirely persuaded to kick the sugar habit to the curb, here\u2019s something that might make you reconsider, especially if you and your partner are trying to conceive.<\/a><\/p>

According to new research from Boston University\u2019s School of Medicine<\/strong> (published in the journal Epidemiology<\/em>), drinking just one sugary drink a day can significantly decrease your fertility<\/a> by as much 33%. <\/p>

Now, this applies to both men and women: the study found that men and women who drank at least one sugary beverage daily experienced affected their changes of successfully conceiving by 33% and 25% respectively. <\/p>

And this held true despite controlling other factors like obesity, caffeine intake, alcohol, smoking and overall diet in the study, which surveyed nearly 4000 women (aged between 21 and 45) and their partners about their daily dietary habits; specifically on their consumption of sugary drinks, which included sodas and sweetened energy drinks. <\/p>

It's no secret how ingrained sugary drinks have become in our everyday diet. As such, authors of the study recommend that couples planning to conceive limit drinking these sweetened drinks<\/a> to avoid affecting their odds of successfully conceiving.<\/strong><\/p>

So if you're trying to start a family, and find yourself reaching out for that can of Red Bull or ordering a soda along with your meal, think about how pervasive its health effects can be... And opt for\u00a0that glass of water<\/a> or a sugar-free juice<\/a> instead.<\/p>
