What To Know
- David describes it as an antidote to modern overconsumption, being a beverage created for people who put a premium on a healthy lifestyle as a result of making smarter choices.
- Allred, the goal is to prove that informed decisions start with awareness—and that small, conscious swaps can change the course of one’s health, with Släcka effectively controlling cravings one sip at a time.
- Frontiers in Nutrition showed that adults consuming over two servings on a day-to-day basis faced nearly a 50% greater risk of death from cardiovascular disease.
David S. Allred, founder of Släcka, has no tolerance for liquid sugar traps, especially during the mid-afternoon crash that tests discipline. For context, research confirms that sugar-sweetened beverages are indeed harmful. To support this, a large BMJ meta-analysis of prospective cohorts found that each additional daily serving correlated with an 18% higher incidence of type 2 diabetes.
Another study published by JAMA Network Open revealed that each extra 12-ounce serving per day increased the risk of all-cause mortality by approximately 11%. In addition, Frontiers in Nutrition showed that adults consuming over two servings on a day-to-day basis faced nearly a 50% greater risk of death from cardiovascular disease. Global models go further, estimating that around 184,000 deaths annually are, in one way or another, linked to habitual consumption of sugar-laden drinks.
Excessive sugar disrupts appetite regulation, insulin sensitivity, and long-term metabolic balance. These findings led to David’s development of Släcka, a clean, zero-sugar drink designed precisely to address the observed 3 p.m. effect—a window when unnecessary cravings are at an all-time high.
Släcka contains no added sugar and features Onosweet™, a natural sweetener derived from fermented rice that delivers crisp flavor. David describes it as an antidote to modern overconsumption, being a beverage created for people who put a premium on a healthy lifestyle as a result of making smarter choices. Replacing even one sugary drink each day with a cleaner option such as Släcka can recalibrate glucose levels and significantly promote sustainable energy without dependence on caffeine or processed sweeteners.
For David S. Allred, the goal is to prove that informed decisions start with awareness—and that small, conscious swaps can change the course of one’s health, with Släcka effectively controlling cravings one sip at a time.
