Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic condition characterized by high blood glucose levels, often associated with insulin resistance. Increased consumption of sugary drinks among adolescents is considered a contributing factor to the increased risk of this condition. This study was conducted to explore the relationship between sugary drink consumption and diabetes risk in adolescents. The study used a literature review method, with sources obtained from Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), and Garuda (Garba Rujukan Digital). Articles included in this review were published between 2021 and 2026 and selected through a screening process, resulting in 13 relevant studies, most of which used a cross-sectional design. The findings showed that most studies reported a significant association between sugary drink consumption and a higher likelihood of developing diabetes mellitus in adolescents. High sugar intake can lead to increased blood glucose levels and contribute to insulin resistance. Furthermore, limited awareness of the effects of excessive sugar consumption also plays a role. Overall, this review concludes that frequent sugary drink consumption is associated with an increased risk of diabetes in adolescents, highlighting the importance of educational interventions to reduce intake and encourage early prevention.
