Do y'all still drink soda?

[Dusty Bake Activate]

I should have asked but Ice Tea obviously.


Hot tea, English peoples teeth...


Besides that I'm sure it's fine for you.

British people need fluoride in their water supply like us, bruh. They need to stop listening to Meta Reign.

I only drink hot tea, which has a ton of health benefits...antioxidants, lowering of cholesterol and blood pressure, anti-carcinogenic effects, creating a good environment for intestinal flora, fluorine to prevent prevent tooth decay, the list goes on and on. There was a study I read about that showed that people who green tea on a regular basis for a long period of years had a significantly lower risk for stroke, osteoporosis, and some other health problems that come with again...I can't remember it all.

As someone who has worked with and around the ingredients that go into soda, I know it's just a suspension of gooey crap that should not be ingested.

The science is out on it. Regular consumption of processed sugary drinks with HFCS and sucralose leads to a high risk of accumulation of belly fat, lowered metabolism, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular problems, too high of a ratio of phosphorus to calcium which in turn leads to low bone density, tooth decay from the acid, and some ingredients present in soda are carcinogenic.

People shouldn't risk any of that just because it taste good. There's no reason to drink it. Get a Brita or Pur filter for your tap water and keep it in the fridge bruhs.

Do you think this mainly involves HFCS instead of sugar? In the old country, they still use sugar and the people are lot more fit and they drink a lot of fukking soda.

 

[ThatKidBlackHippy]

Haven't touched a single can/bottle of soda in 2 years.

 

[Darts]

No scientific reason really...just made a decision to stop drinking it and mostly succeeded for years.

Yeah, too much of any sugar is bad, but the processed ones, specifically HFCS that is in everything, and also sucralose, pose a significantly worse risk. It lowers your metabolism because the fructose is very easily converted into fat, moreso than than sucrose (table sugar) and glucose, and it causes insulin resistance, and an increase in triglycerides that leads to fat deposits forming in the abdominal area. That's part of the reason why you see so many people walking around with love handles and guts hanging over their genital region.

Anybody who has actually seen HFCS and experienced the smell and texture of it and how it's processed and dumped into food products would think twice about drinking soft drinks again. It's in almost everything, so it's almost impossible to escape totally, but you at least want to avoid stuff with high concentrations of it like soft drinks, which you don't need for any nutrition or appetite satisfaction.

tea is great for you, not to mention green tea is also a pretty good aphrodisiac

yea I stopped drinking soda a while back. trying to cut down on juice too but on a hot summer day sometimes I want to drink something with more flavor than water or water with lemon.

tea is a must a bit before going to bed

 

[showtime]

Use to drink soda all the time but once u take a break from it u realize how bad it is for u

 

[Majestic Pape]

I had a Sprite a couple of weeks ago at the bar; before that I probably hadn't had a soda in a couple of years. I do occassionally drink Ginger Ale when my stomach hurts.

 

[4Eyez]

I rarely drink anything but water when i'm thirsty.

Juice is fine here and there, but soda hardly ever.

 

[Mr210]

I drink water 90% of the time the other 10% I drink milk and apple juice

I drink a 20oz soda about once every 2-3 months

 

[Shogun]

[RadaMillz]

I am a huge soda addict, tried for many years to quit but was unsuccessful. However I have been drinking water lately and I am starting to develop a taste for it.

yeah I think the best way to cut out is gastronomical, when you cut it out for a few weeks than taste it again the taste is just weird, like it's extremely sweet but the carbonation gives it another taste so it just doesn't taste good all put together
