Are carbonated drinks such as soda dangerous?

Soda is one of the worst things that you can drink. It is one of the things that is contributing to people being over weight, and also having diabetes. and who knows what else.

Well, one thing is clear, excess of everything is dangerous. This could be a harmful if consumed more than needed, poison goes by many brand names, such as Coca Cola and Pepsi. Generically, this poison is on the market in formulations known as soda, pop, dangerous drinks, you can say. Although it is said that it helps you lose weight and you can even expect to advantages but there is harmful effects too. Carbonated drinks are also commonly a source of sodium. This is not to say that a healthy carbonated drink is not possible. Far better is to eat fruit whole, because fibers in the fruit inhibit fructose absorption into the liver. Nearly everyone by now has heard the litany on the presumed health effects of soft drinks: Obesity. Tooth decay. Caffeine dependence. Weakened bones. But does drinking soda pop really cause those things? Absolutely.

Not only is it harmful because of the excessive amounts of sugar, but it also includes artificial flavor and color. And I have read that diet soda's are even more harmful than the regular soda because of the sugar substitutes, if that is possible... When I was young, I indulged heavily, but I stopped drinking soda's about 15 years ago, and surprisingly enough...I don't miss them.

i use to drink a 2 litter of pepsi every single night, and would ask why am i getting so fat!! now if i do drink soda, i will only drink one glass of diet soda. i make sure now i drink at least 10 to 20 glasses of water every single day. soda may taste sooooooooo good, but it isn't great for you. like everything else, you need to do it in modration.

It's sad to think that the company's nowadays manufactured foods and liquid drink and also uses those chemicals,preservatives or additives that may cause illness to the consumers. In our local store Aspartame is still very much at large in most famous products here in my country. I just wonder how they were able to earn billions in profits and the consumers is dying everyday because of their products. I knew some of those food and beverage manufacturers are aware that some of their products can cause many illness to a lot of people. Still they continue to produce the products. They are such evil businessman.

Not if you drink them now and again. It's all about moderation, no matter what you eat or drink. I'm sure the odd glass of Coke on occasion won't kill you It's when you start drinking carbonated drinks like water that the health issues occur, in my opinion

that is true, regular drinking of soda isn't really good for health. a friend of mine used to drink at least a bottle a day of coke and she ended up having very high sugar levels... luckily she was able to control herself
