Some people drink carbonated soft drink as if it’s water, some even instead of water. Sure, the primary ingredient is water but with all the other “stuff” it contains it can have a…toxic…poisonous…lethal…venomous… seriously harmful effect on your entire body. Drinking pop is a sure-fire way to age faster. These drinks have an alarming amount of sugar, calories and harmful additives in it that have absolutely no nutritional value. Studies have linked these drinks to osteoporosis, obesity, tooth decay and heart disease. Despite this, they account for more than one-quarter of all drinks consumed in the US and UK….and we wonder why we can’t lose weight and why we have health problems. So very often our health problems do not BEGIN on their own. WE encourage illness and disease little-by-little every day by NOT preventing their cause. We know better, we try to fool ourselves, but our bodies’ cells can’t be fooled about what we put in our mouths. I hope the next time you look at a can of pop you take note of the ingredients and smarten up for the good of your own healthy lifespan and that of your children and grandchildren. … Water. Water is not the life source without good reason. Without it our body's fine tuned engine runs less efficiently, & parts of it may even pack up working properly. • Drink about 3-5 pints (about 2 litres) a day • If you have 4-5% less than the recommended daily amount of water, it can affect your mental & physical performance by up to 20-30% • Water flushes out the toxins in our bodies, which if they accumulate can cause dehydration which in turn causes tension, aches, pains, & headaches. • Water helps keep our joints well oiled, helping prevent joint disease such as arthritis in later life. • Water helps our gut work more efficiently, helping prevent constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, & many other related diseases. • Water hydrates your skin. Drinking enough water can combat skin disorders such as eczema, psoriasis, dry skin, wrinkles & spots. We all have a choice.
