WHY SODA OR SOFT DRINKS ARE HARMFUL TO US??

-
Which beverage do you like the most??? if coca-cola and softdrinks are the answer then there is a need to see what harmful effects the have in our body.





Before starting the harmful effects we must know the advantage of it which is only one that it tastes        goooooooood , thats it  otherwise its good for nothing.



DISADVANTAGES OF SODA  


                                          Tooth Decay

                        

The ph of soda is very low i.e the acidity is way too much which is responsible for reduction of mineral content of the enamel making teeth more sensitive , weaker and prone to decay. the acidity in soda is even worse than the solid sugar added in candies.


                                  Risk of Osteoporosis  

                      

Due to presence of phosphorus in aerated drinks , the chances of removal of calcium from kidney is increased.

                                  Increased risk of cancer

                        

According to WHO , daily intake of sugar for a person is 6 tsp while in a single can of coke there is 10 tsp of sugar which itself is above than the normal limit of intake. high amount of sugar increases the insulin of the body which feeds tumor. 
 
Apart from the taste , do you know why coke is blck in colour? so the simple reason for it is the flavour used in them which are made up of chemicals which  are responsible for breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer.


                                         Kidney damage 

                           



Your body must buffer the acidity of soft drinks with calcium from your own bones. It's because of their acidity and radical mineral imbalances. Your body must buffer the acidity of soft drinks with calcium from your own bones. As this calcium is eliminated through your urine, it slowly forms kidney stones.
 

                                             Dehydration

                                   



Sodas act as dehydrating diuretics. Both caffeine and sugar cause dehydration. Caffeine is a diuretic and causes an increase in urine volume. High concentration of sugar is drawing off water because your kidneys try to expel the excess sugar out of the blood. When you drink a caffeinated soda to quench your thirst, you will actually become thirstier.

                                  Increase in Blood Pressure

                            

Experts have reasons to believe that overconsumption of fructose, particularly in the form of soft drinks, leads to an increase in blood pressure.


                                  Increase in Heart Disease

                                 




Sugar intake has always been linked to high blood sugar, high triglycerides in the blood and dense LDL that are the major cause of cardiovascular diseases.


                                     Causes sleep disorders

                              


Soft drinks contain caffeine that affects our nervous system and alters mood and behaviour. Also, it prevents drowsiness by blocking the hormones and sleep inducers making you stay awake for long.


                                   Pesticides in Soft Drink

                           



CSE found high levels of toxic pesticides and insecticides, high enough to cause cancer, damage to the nervous and reproductive systems, birth defects and severe disruption of the immune system. Market leaders Coca-Cola and Pepsi had almost similar concentrations of pesticide residues. 

HERE ARE SOME OF THE ALTERNATIVES


Water. Water is the best drink in the world.
Tea. Any kind of tea - herbal, green or black - is rich in antioxidants, which were shown to protects the body form many health problems.
100% Juice. Fruit juice can be also useful for flavoring your water and teas.
