DESCRIPTION
Ivori Holson outline the harmful effects of a sugary drink diet in "Thin Line" written and performed by Ivori for the Bigger Picture project, a collaboration between Youth Speaks and UCSF's Center for Vulnerable Populations.
Sugary drinks are the number one source of calorie's in young people's diets. Drinking one or two sugary drinks each day increases the risk of type 2 diabetes by about 25%. Nearly 1 in 2 children of color born in the year 2000 will get diabetes in their lifetime...unless we do something about it. Raise your voice and join the conversation about diabetes.
