Do you drink more than two colas per day? Read this!

Everything's bad for you if you want it to be! Get a piece of paper and write everything you do in a day and see how many of those a scientist will tell you CAN give you cancer. Don't listen to them, just do what's sensible. :)

I drink mostly water even when we go out to eat I drink water or ice tea. Sometime I drink diet pepsi but nothing else. I love water so I drink that instead of anything else.

I don't drink a lot of cola, or much carbonated beverages of any kind. It's interesting that research has made a link between that and kidney problems. When I watch my grandson (4 yr old), I don't give him colas at all. Maybe some gingerale when his tummy's upset, but for the most part it's juice or water. I think that cola is a habit many people get into, young and older. I never got into the habit, and I never let my kids get into the habit of drinking it. When they did get cola or other carbonated beverages, it was either at a party, or for a special treat once a week. I think it's all what you get used to, they still are that way today. Thanks for sharing the report, I'm going to pass the link along to a couple of friends who complain about their own cola habit...maybe this will sway them into finally tackling it! I think parents should try and limit their kids cola intake. Kids nowadays get too much of that, and junk food too, that isn't teaching them healthy habits at all.

I guess too much of anything is never good for you anyways. So, thanks for sharing this by the way.

We don't drink a lot of soda here. I used to drink lots and lots of soda. But I have diabetes and acid reflux now so it is rare that I drink anything bubbly or with caffeine. I drink water, water and more water (sometimes sun tea). Of course, I think we should all limit how much soda we drink. Kids these days are bordering on obesity and cutting soda out of their diets would be a great start.

I had no idea drinking soda was that bad for your kidneys. We do try to limit our comsumption to 1 or 2 a day.

Did I miss something? Where's the link that you refer to below?

yes,parents should try to limit cola intake as models for their children,in addition,taking too much cola is harmful to themselves. for me,when i was a child ,i like cola very much.but now ,i usually don't drink cola. because on one hand, i've heard that cola is not good for health. on the other hand, i like tea and water more. tea is good for health,and water is commonly considered the best drink for human being.so, i don't drink cola now. thank for your report and wish your husband can drink less cola for his health. and wish you all the best! by the way ,it's my first time coming to your topic,which feels great,thank you!
