On May 22nd, an 18-year-old girl in Shanghai fell into a diabetic coma after drinking boba two times a day for a month. 

 

Before she fell into a coma, reports said that she had been experiencing symptoms of nausea, frequent urination, and dehydration. She was found by family members in her house unconscious.

 

She was quickly taken to Ruijin hospital, where she was placed on a ventilator which is a machine that moves breathable air in and out of the lung to help the patient breathe and received a kidney dialysis, a process in which they use an artificial kidney to remove waste and extra fluids from the blood before she woke from her coma five days later. 


Her blood sugar levels had been 25 times higher than the normal sugar level which is 90 to 150 mg/dL. The average cup(5 ml) of milk tea has 54 grams of sugar. Therefore, she had been drinking 108 grams of sugar each day. On June 1, she was discharged from the hospital and was told to be on a watch.
