    5 Side Effects of Drinking Soft Drinks

    Almost everybody drinks soft drinks without being conscious of the side effects that can be detrimental to health. These drinks are filled with sugars and are very harmful to our well-being. Despite having many side effects, the consumption of soft drinks is very popular across the globe.

    Soda drinks are filled with caffeine and phosphoric acid. The Framingham Osteoporosis Study conducted in 2006 involved more than 2,500 participants and found that women who are more vulnerable to weight loss than men were found to have substantially lower BMD in their hips due to daily cola intake.

    Another research has shown that the explanation for this phenomenon is the high level of phosphorus that can inhibit the absorption of calcium. Specialists also contend that phosphoric acid in the cola removes calcium from the bones.

    They also argue that 4 cups of coffee a day (330 mg of caffeine) can contribute to bone loss. This is because caffeine inhibits the absorption of calcium and throws calcium out of the body through the urine.

    So, if you have this kind of health problem and you are over 50 years of age, or if you have a disease that limits the absorption of nutrients, you should probably stop drinking soda.

    What are the side effects of drinking excessive soda?

    Excessive consumption of soft drinks has several side effects.

    The consumption of soda is very much popular among people of various ages. It is rich in added sugar which is detrimental to the blood sugar markers and phosphorous which is actively involved in the absorption of calcium in the body.

    Here is a list of some of the health condition which may be caused by the excessive drinking of soda.

    Weight Gain

    According to the latest figures, 1 out of 3 children and 2 out of 3 adults in the urban population suffer from obesity. Experts argue that the most common explanation for this is the excessive consumption of soft drinks.

    The Assistant Professor of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai says that with 1 can of Coke a day you could add another 15 lbs. Excessive intake of soda leads to an increase in visceral fat around the organs, which raises the risk of heart attacks.

    Liver Disorder

    The huge amounts of fructose found in them make soda drinks very dangerous to your liver. This may be one of the key explanations for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. With just 2 cans of coke a day, you can increase the risk of liver disease, fatty liver, cirrhosis of the liver, and heart attacks.

    Tooth Decay

    Consumption of soda can quickly contribute to tooth erosion. They can increase the risk of cavities and damage the enamel of the tooth. The harm lasts 20 minutes after each sip, which means that drinking soda slowly will only increase the harmful effects on your teeth.

    Soda may even be put under the surface of the enamel, in the dentin, and even corroded by composite fillings. Children’s teeth are not completely hardened and grown, so it happens that soda drinks are much more harmful to them.

    Renal Disorder

    A new study of more than 3,000 respondents (mostly women) found that women who drink soda had a 30% drop in renal function relative to those who do not eat soda at all.

    In Japan, another study has shown that the consumption of more than 2 soda drinks per day can lead to protein loss via urine. This is a common symptom of kidney disease, kidney injury, heart failure, and heart disease.

    Diabetes

    Type 2 diabetes can be induced with daily coke intake. Namely, people who drink more than 2 cans of soda a day are at a 26% higher risk of having this problem. Dr. Ochner, a pediatric professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, believes that the ingestion of soda can lead to significant inflows of sugar in your blood. He also insists that soda prevents the system from controlling blood sugar levels.

    In the words of Dr. Ochner, soda can also contribute to insulin resistance and dysregulation. The body cannot metabolize sugar properly and that causes diabetes. People who eat sugary drinks and soda daily are at a 20% higher risk of developing a heart attack.

    Summary

    These alarming facts are enough for anyone to stop drinking soda. If you just can’t eliminate them from your diet, consider limiting them and drink healthy alternatives instead, such as tea, new vegetable juices, infused water, and so on. These drinks are the ones that will certainly give you more energy and make you feel fresher and healthier. “Drink Healthy, Stay Healthy”.
