According to a recent study, drinking just ONE regular soda a day equals FIFTY POUNDS of sugar in a year, leading to obesity, diabetes, and heart disease! If you’re a soda drinker, try swapping it for water and watch some pounds fall off!
DIET drinks are NOT any better…they contain ASPARTAME which acts as a neurotoxin and is linked to CANCER. Studies have found diet sodas to cause migraines and increase risk of obesity and heart disease.

Things that make say, WTF!
An excellent reminder. I really try not to drink any of my calories, but am definitely guilty of a few “diet” drinks during the week. It seems so harmless, yet is so toxic. Thanks for the post.
Reblogging this too. Its something that is so obvious but needed a visual aid. Thanks.

I already did a post on drinking soda, but here is a post to a blog I subscribe to. Grab your sugar cubes and start popping . It will be a lot of chewing until you eat as much sugar as are in one bottle of coke.
Hi Samantha,
This is SO true!! And I am so glad I am not the only person acknowledging this… Everybody should know this and nobody should be drinking the soda drinks (diet and regular).

I love this! I have never been a soda drinker but it totally affirms my non drinking habit!

I’m an avid believer that soft drinks are the one of the main causes of obesity. I did a research paper on soft drinks at Uni and there is an abundance of evidence to support the abolishment in schools to protect children’s health…and their teeth!
