Re: Addiction to Colas

its a very simple thing. carbonated drinks have carbon dioxide and sugar in them. both co2 and sugar converted to acids inside ur body. excess of acid in blood or saliva rots ur teeth(causing cavities, gum weakness) and cause digestive problems bringing various imbalances to body.

Re: Addiction to Colas

I think coke and pepsi have alot of phosphoric acid, little bit of it is okay ... body can handle normal imbalances. But if you drink alot of it, then it will increase the blood phosphorus levels of your body.

Blood is like a buffer, it is taught to stay perfectly balanced, so to compensate for extra phosphorus, the blood pulls out calcium from your bones and teeth to make calcium phosphate.

Avoid too much caffeinated, boxed items, sugary drinks, ... It is wise to make a habit of drinking plain, fresh, filtered water. You'll feel much more peaceful.

Start keeping your track of your money.
Replace with water.

Re: Addiction to Colas

Im surprised the cola/pepsi addicts havent noticed how the more you drink these fizzy drinks, the more you want to drink more. They don't satisfy your thirst and there are so many studies about how bad it is for you.

also, gas problems anyone?!!

Re: Addiction to Colas

Start eating healthier and working out. You'll notice that it will start turning you off from colas... exercising really helps with that. You crave it a lot less, and you actually want water after a good run. Nothing wrong with drinking it, but lesser is better.

Re: Addiction to Colas

A drink that can literally unclog toilets should be ok to drink. I say go for it.

Re: Addiction to Colas

Some people make too much of this. Warren buffet drinks 6-8 cans a day and he still seems okay. I probably wouldn't do it that much, at least get some plain old water in you too.

Re: Addiction to Colas

Well this addiction is all psychological. You can get rid of by reducing your pepsi intake everyday. For instance, have one can of pop per day. And then cut down by forcing yourself have water instead. And because your body is used of taking high amount of sugar you need to cut down otherwise the health effects will not be good.
