I am looking to write an online article about the negative effects of eating/drinking a certain item. There are articles that have a title such as "Top Health Benefits of _____". What could be used to describe the exact opposite?

There is a similarly titled question, "Antonym of benefit". However, the content of the question is different and its answer is not helpful for my situation.
