lisachee well I havent really read all the posts. But just want to add that fizzy drinks are bad for health specially cola drink. Two of my friends have been drinking cola drinks everyday since a very long time. And their canine tooth have half got broken and other ones molars. Just imagine a tooth cant bear think about how it will react in our stomach. I only go for fresh juices.
Libertine Diet drinks are very bad and all fizzy drinks if to abuse of them. Maybe now it's imperceptible ,but they will have a bad effect at the old age as bad liver and kidneys and diabet .
TurboPeter I hate those so called diet drinks and their artificial sweeteners taste. Mostly I drink carbonated mineral water but from time to time (once a month) I drink a can or two of good old coke just to get some sugar and feel the fine taste. 😂
kanelli I too like carbonated mineral water, mixed with fruit juice if I want a sweeter taste. My occasional guilty pleasure is drinking Brio Chinotto.
Nucleus I don't drink soda or soda based drinks deit or other wise. I stick to milk, water, and juices.
casper021 I stopped drinking fizzy drinks about 2 years ago and I can tell you I feel much better, I used to drink 4-5 cans a day
SicnarFranciS casper021 , 4-5 cans a day? Whoa! That's alot!!! For me I think it's not just the Diet drinks. Let's just say it's good to keep it all balance. As what the Elderly advice too much is not good. Lol http://www.beautyden.com/sugar.shtml <---- This is alot scary.
