How bad are sodas (Colas) for you?!


Question: I stopped drinking so many, i use to drink about 3 a day, now I only have 1 every 3 days. So how bad are they for you? Also are energy drinks worse for you?

sodas are bad because of the high sugar content. but also for other reasons. I've heard that they can affect your bones as well. I work for a spine doctor and he says that if I don't stop drinking pop, i'll be in to see him one day as a patient! (but I still drink one a day) but the diet sodas, they are now saying, cause you to eat more. so, either way, they're not so good. I don't know much about the energy drinks, but I believe the same would probably be true.

i NEVER drink sodas unless i am at a party or seomthing and thats my only option, but if the party has water, i'll go for that, sodas are one of the most fattening drinks ever made.

Well when you brush your teeth you remove some of the enamel on them (if you drink soda frequently) without knowing it..... its not that hot for you... there is lots of sugar... I don't know about energy drinks, though.

Very!!!!

Keep yourseld away from them.

very fattening and the ingredients are so corruptive to your system, drink plenty of water to dilute the sodas in your system.

u dont want to ask me questions like dis. but i think it's becuz of the high sugar. also caffine isn't good for u. AND... the high fructose corn syrup in it can be genetically modified. the only pop i drink is the Whole Foods 365 brand. it's made with pure cane sugar and NO high fructose corn syrup... BOTH ARE BETTA 4 U.

colas contains 7 tbspoon sugar! you can calculate it...

Sodas have no nutritional value and can do more harm than good. Try pouring a can of soda into a cup, and add a piece of bread. the bread will completely disintegrate - think about how that will affect your stomach? Sodas, even diet, also cause your stomach to bloat giving you something similar to what used to be called a beer belly (caused by the carbonated water). Nothing with carbonated water is "good" for you, alot of Energy drinks have carbonated water. My cardiologist recommended Powerade or Gatorade (higher in sodium) to replace the electrolites in my body. After an good exercise I drink Vitamin water because it tastes good and I get tired of water, but even this must be done in moderation.

energy drink are very bad for you!!!!! don't drink them if you want that energy from a drink try coffee it still is not that good for you, but much better than energy drinks.

they r not good for you!
i nvrrrrr drink them

They are certainly not good for you. The sugar is really out of control in them. Water is the best thing for you. It is naturally cleansing. Energy drinks are another crock. They are so loaded with sugar it is ridiculous. To change it up once in a while, I prefer Glaceau's Vitamin Water. It has sugar in it but not nearly as much as similar energy drinks. If it tastes not so good than it probably isn't all that bad for you. If it tastes good then it is not good for you.
I drive a tractor trailer for a living and one of my routine stops is to a company that manufactures these types of energy drinks. 75% of the stuff I deliver to them is in large 55 gallon drums and is either flamable or corrosive (AKA Hazardous Materials). That has to be good for you. I can't smoke around it but I can drink it. Go figure.

1. a serving is 100 calories.
that is crazy crazy! its just a drink!
so many sugars are
packed into such a tiny thing.

2. there are chemicals in that are
harmful to your stomache and teeth
like seriously bad..they can give
you gas problems and the acid grinds
away at the enamel on your pearly whites!

3. its adictive! no lie! certain chemicals
in it make you crave sugars which leads
you to drink more soda and eat more..

4. it makes yo breath stank lol..

and energy drinks are in most cases just
as bad or even a lot worse.

-you should try teas or healthy juices instead
[but beware of high calorie juices which can
be just as bad as sodas and stuff..]

hope this helps =]

good question i try to stay away from them unless you know i am on a low like if i am tired or something but in that same aspect is coffee any better??? which is worse soda or coffee?
