yes, something must kill a man. but having a feeble health before going to the grave is worst. meanwhile, aspartame (one of the major ingredient in any soft drinks) is factually proven to cause harm with no health benefit. infact, it kills your organs by just injesting it. it is much more better to take kunu or zobo

Thanks for educating me.
Healinicblog:
Soft drinks etc is one of the most consumed beverages in the Nigeria, second only to water. Here in Nigeria, we consumes upto 57 gallons of soft drinks per person every year as form of refreshment after a hectic day, on the road during a frustrating traffics form of entertsinment and all that, as if it wasn’t full of sugary calories. But what’s happening inside the bodies of soda consumers with each sip?,sugary drinks increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic conditions. So today Healinic will be discussing more on dangers of soft drinks.. awareness as they say is far better than cure..







Here are the Reasons Why you need to Reduce Soft drinks intake.

1 High Risk of Cancer : There have been many studies that have looked at the links between various types of cancer and fizzy drink consumption,
Drinking just one fizzy drink a day could increase a man’s chance of developing prostate cancer by around 40 per cent, secondly Drinking just one-and-a-half cans a day can increase a girl's breast cancer risk by per cent and lastly Some chemicals that are used to colour soft drinks can cause cancer.

2. They Can Cause Diabetes: Sugar-laden drinks have been proven to increase cases of Type 2 diabetes. A study conducted between 1990 and 2000 estimated that the increased consumption of sugar-sweetened drinks contributed to 130,000 new cases of diabetes.

3. They Can Cause Premature Birth in Women: Pregnant women were warned against drinking diet fizzy drinks after a study taken in Denmark on 60,000 women. Those who drank artificially sweetened soft drinks, whether fizzy or still, were found to be more likely to give birth prematurely. It was thought that the chemicals in the artificial sweetner changed the wombs of the women.


4. They Can Damage the Brain: As well as affecting the body, fizzy drinks have been found to alter the protein levels in the brain, which could lead to hyperactivity.


5. They can Make One Violent: A study carried out on teenagers found a link between drinking fizzy drinks, violence and the likelihood of them carrying a weapon. The researchers found that even teenagers who drank just two cans a week were more aggressive towards their friends and those who drank five or more cans a week were also more likely to have drunk alcohol or smoked at least once in the previous month.


6. Liver Damage : A study from 2009 found that sugary drinks can cause fatty liver disease and drinking just two cans per day could lead to liver damage.

Beverage companies know the haphazard sugar cycle all too well. In the United States, they spend approximately $3.2 billion in marketing each year in an effort to tempt consumers to pick up a liter of brown bubbly sugar with their pizza, or a case of cans for their child’s next birthday party. Those little children have an 80 percent increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes if they become regular soda drinkers. Their future will be one full of kidney problems, reproductive issues, osteoporosis, asthma, and bad teeth with dissolved tooth enamel.

Drink up!

Yea, d op is right. Consistent consumption of soft drinks for a period of time is harmful because of d high quantitiy of sugar as well as the preservatives and additives added. All dese chemicals make them harmful. Infact soft drinks such as diet coke for e.g dat contain artificial sweetners like aspartame, saccharine, acesulfame k are much more sweeter than d normal sugar and so consumin them are much more dangerous also because dey r chemicals(artificials), if consumed consistently with time

leave them. let them keep ingesting sugar, poison, preservatives. Some take coke every single day, later when diabetes or Cancer strike, they will say but no one in my family has this. The cost of illness never jam some pipo.

No, not only water, but also natural fruit juices (not factory produced), natural wine e.g. palm wine.

To be safe these too must be free from germs and chemical contaminants.

Right on moderation.

Wrong on 'something must kill a man'. Very wrong attitude. If you don't value your life, your loved ones do.

Your health is the most important resource that makes your survival useful and productive. Take care of it.

Those who sell the products are ONLY after their profit not your health. You are the architect of your health.

THEY HAVE BEEN CAPTURED BY THEIR TASTE BUDS. AND BECAUSE THE BAD EFFECTS OF THESE JUNK DRINKS (AND FOODS) ARE NOT IMMEDIATE PEOPLE ASSUME IT IS OK TO TAKE THEM. WHILE THEIR PRODUCERS SMILE TO THE BANKS AT EXPENSE OF CONSUMERS' HEALTH AND LIFE.

IGNORANCE AND RESISTANCE TO GOOD CHANGE ALWAYS DESTROY.
