Yes, unhealthy: If you're drinking the full-sugar kind of dr. Pepper, you're getting 64 grams of sugar per 20oz drink. This comes from high-fructose corn syrup, which contributes to fat deposits in your liver, and plaque buildup & narrowing of blood vessels. Diet dr. Pepper is risky too. A study found that people who drink diet drinks daily were 43% more likely to have suffered strokes or heart attacks.
