FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 2002 Public schools in Wyoming are being urged by a dentist to stop selling soda pop in vending machines because the drink is high in sugar and unhealthy. Drinking soda can cause increased tooth decay, bone loss, obesity and type 2 diabetes. Jim Landers, president of the Wyoming Dental Association, wants a bill introduced to ban the sale in schools. A school panel recently recommended one district get rid of the machines. Get the Story:
