1 Secrets That Are Silent: The Harm of Carbonated Drinks (Obesity, Infertility, Cancer...) Do you like to walk in the fresh air? It's so cool to walk and get some fresh air sometimes. Often walking, we see people of different ages with bottles of sugary sodas or just juices. These are lovers of running, and walking simply, and mothers with strollers. And although the harms of carbonated drinks have long been known, people still think that it is a good substitute for plain water or, as athletes think, a good source of glucose and carbohydrates.







Many are still not quite familiar with the full list of side effects and destruction that these drinks can cause in our bodies.

We are here to change your mind.

We do not want to intimidate you, we want to help you. Everyone has their own life and each receives information in their own way.

In fact, if you regularly consume these carbonated drinks and juices, You may stumble upon the full range of the most undesirable diseases in your life – most of which are the result of an early death.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise if I say that sugar is the main ingredient in these unhealthy beverages. That is why all this hype is being raised today.

Let’s try to understand this topic...



The harm of carbonated drinks ...

1. Carbonated drinks lead to obesity of internal organs



If you consume excess sugar in the form of sugary drinks, there is a high probability that this will lead to excess fat on your body. This does not indicate the appearance of fat that collects on the thighs, buttocks and sides (in the form of subcutaneous fat), although it may be.

This indicates the appearance of visceral fat. This type of fat, which collects around vital organs such as the liver, kidneys, intestines and stomach, is associated with type 2 diabetes and other inflammatory diseases.

According to MedUniver in one of the articles, British scientists from Bangor University conducted a study involving a group of volunteers who for one month daily drank 0.5 liters of soda.

Of course, after the end of the experiment, the participants themselves did not feel any negative health, but the results of the tests surprised the scientists. It turned out that despite the fact that all the participants were slim and fit people, all of them after a month of consumption of sugary sodas recorded the same indicators that are observed in patients with the second degree of obesity. That is, obesity started inside, around the organs.

Based on research, scientists advise to abandon the use of sugary carbonated drinks in order not to provoke metabolic disorders and not to suffer from obesity in the future.



2. Sweet soda water accelerates the aging process



All of the anti-aging products on the market suggest that people don’t want to age even naturally, which means keeping a young body as long as possible, right? Everyone seems to agree with that opinion.

But by continuing to drink sugary sodas, we can only accelerate this process.

According to American researchers, there is a link between cell aging and consumption of sugary drinks.

The scientists explained that telomeres – the end sections of chromosomes that protect against clumping – shorten with each cell division. In addition, telomere length is directly related to a person’s biological age and is a factor in aging.

It turned out that people who regularly consumed large amounts of sugary sodas, they were shorter than those who did not consume such drinks.

In the new study, researchers examined the effects of sweetened beverages on various aspects of cellular aging in 5,309 volunteers aged 20 to 65 years who did not suffer from diabetes or cardiovascular disease. It turned out that daily consumption of approximately 2.5 glasses of sweet soda was associated with accelerated telomere shortening and an additional increase in biological age by 4.6 years.

This effect is comparable to the effect of smoking, and the reverse effect on telomere length corresponds to the effect on the body of physical activity.

Experts believe it is important to understand how dietary factors affect telomere shortening and lengthening.

The results of the study indicate a strong harmful effect of sugary carbonated drinks on the human body.

All carbonated beverages (including their dietary versions) are known to contain phosphoric acid, which gives them their pungent aroma and increases their shelf life.

Meanwhile, excess phosphoric acid has been linked to kidney, bone, osteoporosis, and even muscle loss, due to the fact that it interferes with the body’s absorption of calcium.



3. Carbonated drinks lead to insulin resistance



The composition of the usual sweet carbonated drinks includes a large amount of glucose and fructose. When the drink enters the human body, the pancreas is activated due to a large intake of sugar, begins to produce insulin in large quantities, and this process leads to a jump in blood sugar levels.

What happens to your body after you get another dose of soda? Let's focus on that.

You had a drink. After 20 minutes, blood sugar levels rise significantly, resulting in a lot of insulin. The liver, in turn, reacts to the above processes, turning large amounts of sugar into fat. 40 minutes after you drink the drink, the caffeine contained in it is completely absorbed into the blood. For this reason, the pupils dilate, blood pressure rises, the liver begins to throw sugar into the blood. 45 minutes after taking the drink, dopamine, a hormone that stimulates the pleasure center in the brain, is released into the blood. After an hour, the blood sugar level drops sharply, and this causes a desire to drink soda again. If you drink sugary drinks regularly, insulin levels will constantly rise, this will lead to insulin resistance, metabolic disorders, and this in turn can cause a variety of diseases from diabetes to cancer. In addition, regular consumption of soda contributes to the formation of obesity.



4. Carbonated water leads to heart disease



Heart disease is also known as cardiovascular disease or heart and blood vessel disease. These diseases are the number one killers almost all over the world. Everyone wants to live longer without going to the pharmacy, right? .

According to researchers, sugary soft drinks are becoming a ticking time bomb, especially for people under 45. After all, it is at a young age that a person is much more at risk of diabetes or obesity.

The main causes of deaths resulting from consumption of sugary drinks are, in addition to diabetes, heart failure and cancer.

Heart disease also includes heart attacks, heart failure, strokes and others. You can live with it for years and even have multiple heart attacks, but it can eventually lead to disability or severe old age.



5. Sweet drinks increase the risk of diabetes



As mentioned above, consumption of carbonated beverages can lead to diabetes.

According to the results of the study, due to the consumption of various carbonated, energy or fruit drinks, as well as sweetened iced tea, 133 thousand people died from diabetes in one year alone, from cardiovascular diseases – 45 thousand, from cancer – 6.5 thousand.

Dr. Dariusz Mozaffarian from Boston commented on these unwelcome statistics: In many countries around the world, a lot of people die as a result of diabetes earned by consuming sweetened beverages. Everyone should think about this and significantly reduce or eliminate such drinks from the diet. They have no health benefits, and the ability to reduce the amount of sugary liquid consumed would reduce deaths by tens of thousands annually.”

This is followed by other negative consequences (harm of carbonated drinks) is Alzheimer’s disease.



6. Sweet drinks lead to Alzheimer’s disease



In one of our articles, we wrote about the health risks of sugar. And since carbonated drinks are full of it, their effect is close to the effect of sugar on our body.

Sweet drinks can increase the risk of Alzheimer’s disease! ...

Scientists in America found that mice fed the equivalent of 5 cans of sugary drinks a day had worse memories and twice as many brain damage associated with the disease as mice without added sugar in their diet.

This suggests that carbonated drinks may be linked to Alzheimer’s disease.





7. Carbonated drinks lead to severe brain disorders


The sugar substitute aspartame (E-951) is a component of some foods and carbonated beverages, perhaps the most controversial of all substances. Manufacturers and government authorities claim that it is safe, but a number of scientists and some facts confirm that this is not entirely true. Tellingly, the study for or against aspartame seems to be closely tied to who paid for it. 100% of industry-funded studies have concluded that aspartame is safe. While 92% of independently funded studies and reports identified aspartame as a potential source of harmful effects. In an analysis published by the European Journal of Dietary Nutrition, South African scientists assessed the potential effects on the brain of not only one of the components of aspartame, methanol, but also other elements (phenylalanine and aspartic acid). The analysis is long and detailed and is supported by more than 50 references to scientific papers. In their analysis of the effects of phenylalanine, the authors detail the substance’s ability to disrupt brain chemistry, including its ability to lower levels of key brain chemicals, such as serotonin (which can adversely affect a variety of areas, including mood, behavior, sleep, and appetite). The authors note that phenylalanine also has the ability to disrupt amino acid metabolism, nerve function and hormonal balance in the body. They claim that aspartame is capable of destroying nerve cells, and that it can even cause Alzheimer’s disease. I don’t know about you, but these bad actions are enough for us to avoid carbonated drinks, juices and energy drinks (by the way, we’ve already written about the horrors of energy)!

8. Caramel dye found in some drinks leads to cancer

If you are a fan of Coca-Cola, Pepsi, or any other drink, You need to hear this. The most horrifying and recent data published by the Center for Science in the Public Interest in 2011 claimed that a dye called “caramel” used in Coca-Cola and Pepsi could cause cancer. The fact is that there is nothing natural in this dye, from real caramel there is only one name in it. The dye “caramel” is obtained as a result of the chemical reaction of sugar with ammonia and sulfates under high pressure and temperature. American scientists who studied these reactions in laboratories have found that all the products obtained in this case lead to lung and liver cancer, thyroid cancer and leukemia in laboratory mice and rats. Scientists say that chemicals that cause cancer in animals pose a serious threat to the development of cancer in humans. Scientists began to sound the alarm and even demanded to change the label to one that says that drinking these drinks leads to cancer. Coca-Cola and Pepsi have since switched to other dyes. However, they still contain dangerous levels of chemicals. So ... Stay away from those drinks!

9. Sugar in carbonated drinks is addictive to it

By the way, do you love your children? And remember now how many carbonated drinks you put on the table with a lot of other, not the healthiest, sweets. We strongly encourage you to look at our article on the dangers of sugar, take some time... Sugar triggers the release of a hormone in the brain that makes us feel good. You probably know some sweet tooth, right? Know that he is practically a drug addict... But according to the magazine Woman, the research data are truly frightening: scientists are increasingly comparing sugar lovers with drug addicts, warning that sweets not only give fleeting pleasure, but also are addictive, ultimately turning your health into ruins. It’s like getting used to cocaine!

10. Carbonated drinks will destroy your teeth

You probably already know or have heard somewhere in the corner of the ear that orthophosphoric acid, which is found in sugary sodas, interferes with the absorption of calcium and can lead to osteoporosis - it is a nightmare for your teeth, not just for your bones. But I was struck by another discovery recently. According to the network of clinics in Moscow Startsmile, Chinese scientists have found that carbonated drinks, even without sugar, cause dental diseases. All assurances that diet soda does not spoil enamel are just a publicity stunt. Dr. Chu Chung-hun, associate professor of family dentistry at the University of Hong Kong, and colleagues recently conducted a study among junior high school students and found that most of their teeth are susceptible to erosion as well as other serious dental conditions. Among six hundred schoolchildren at the age of twelve, almost 75% had the rudiments of erosion. One in five children had carious injuries, half of which were untreated. The researchers also found that girls are more prone to tooth decay than boys. According to experts, erosion and caries in schoolchildren were formed due to the constant use of foods high in acid. Parents of children confirmed the hypothesis of scientists, reporting that about 20% of children quite often consume soda and fruit juices. Perhaps this should be an example or lesson for you and your children – drinking soda is harmful!
