Read on for her report on three shocking soda facts that will have you saying “Just water, please” from now on. Shocking Soda Fact #1: Soda fattens up your organs A recent Danish study revealed that drinking non-diet soda leads to dramatic increases in dangerous hard-to-detect fats. Researchers asked participants to drink either regular soda, milk containing the same amount of calories as regular soda, diet cola, or water every day for six months. The results? Total fat mass remained the same across all beverage-consuming groups, but regular-soda drinkers experienced dramatic increases in harmful hidden fats, including liver fat and skeletal fat. The regular-soda group also experienced an 11 percent increase in cholesterol compared to the other groups! And don’t think switching to diet varieties will save you from harm: Artificial sweeteners and food dyes have been linked to brain cell damage and hyperactivity, and research has shown that people who drink diet soda have a higher risk of developing diabetes.  "One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." Rev Canon Karanja.

Shocking Soda Fact #2: Soda contains flame retardants Some popular soda brands, including Mountain Dew, use brominated vegetable oil—a toxic flame retardant—to keep the artificial flavoring from separating from the rest of the liquid. This hazardous ingredient—sometimes listed as BVO on soda and sports drinks—can cause bromide poisoning symptoms like skin lesions and memory loss, as well as nerve disorders. If that’s not a good enough reason not to “Do the Dew,” I don’t know what is. "One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." Rev Canon Karanja.

Shocking Soda Fact #3: Drinking soda makes you a lab rat Many American soda brands are sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup, a heart-harming man-made compound derived mainly from genetically engineered corn. The problem? Genetically engineered ingredients have only been in our food chain since the 1990s, and we don't know their long-term health impacts because the corporations that developed the crops never had to test them for long-term safety. Case in point: Some recent findings suggest that genetically engineered crops are linked to digestive tract damage, accelerated aging, and even infertility!

The only risk of GMO is that seeds of these crops can enter the environment and out-compete the flora as we know it. A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work

There has only one recorded death in the world from artificial sweeteners. This report is alarmist. People die even from eating sukuma wiki. There is no direct link between diabetes and diet drinks. There is only only a hypothesis that those who take diet drinks tend to develop a sweet tooth and hence start eating unhealthy sweet snacks leading to diabetes.

i don't drink Coke ever since i found out our cleaners use it to remove stubborn stains on tiles and the toilet bowl.To me it's more of a detergent than a drink.

Ethanol, present in Tusker (or your favourite tipple), is flammable, used as fuel as well as industrial solvent. Cassava contains trace amounts of deadly cyanide-like compounds. Drink a Coke, there are bigger problems out there

Can someone here please confirm that a bottle of Soda has sugar equivalent to ten tea spoons while Fanta has sugar equivalent to 12 tea spoons? A friend of mine died from Diabetes. He owned a shop and used to take like four sodas a day. He was told by his doctor that the cause of all his problems is the chemicals in the sodas he took with abandon. Wisdom to detect when share prices hit rock bottom.
When interest on bonds keep going up, you know the bear run is on high street. When interest on bonds start leveling, the bear has met the bull and they have hit rock bottom. When the interest rates on bonds start coming down, the bull has overpowered the bear and you better be riding the bull.

We all know/knew sodas are not healthy. Nothing's shocking or surprising here. It's just like cigarettes, we all know how dangerous they are but do people stop smoking? No. Did you know your government spends more money on medical bills for cigarette smoking related illnesses than the revenue they make from taxes on cigarettes? Now, how does that make sense?
BBI will solve it :)
