I love sodas, but regular sodas are just too sweet and have so many empty calories. And, I just don't like the taste or after taste of diet sodas. So I only drink sodas on rare occasions and only if I dilute it with carbonated water. I got this tip form my dad, he dilutes his soda by half with carbonated water. I bought a Sodastream and make my own carbonated water. I find that it's the fizziness that I crave, so I developed a taste for just plain carbonated water to substitute for sodas. I'm the only I know, besides my dad that likes drinking just carbonated water. I've gotten to the point where I can't drink water any other way.
If I do have a soda, I only drink soda from whole foods because it doesn't have artificial colors nor processed sugar.
I just tried kombucha soda - which as probiotics, antioxidants, b vitamins, etc - and they actually taste pretty good.
So I guess if you are going to drink a soda make sure it has better ingredients. Say no to artificial colors, artificial flavors, high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, and processed sugar.

I seriously do not understand why people even can get addicted to soda...
As said above i like kombucha, water kefir, or i can put pierrie mineral water into juice or wine.( once in a year) I tried sodas which are made of natural ingridients in health cafe. And they were nice one was sort of coka cola made of cane sugar, vanilla and garbonated water. But price was over 3 $for a small bottle, and even if someone would pay for my drink i dont see myself drinking it more than once.
Empty callories is bad, yes, but that my insulin jumps up so rapidly. I cant treat my body that bad. I know too much to treat myself badly!

I can. During my high school years I was addicted to coke (the drink). First, I think back then they were caffeinated. Also, as a woman I have sugar craving esp. before and during menstruation . And finally, I swear I had "mouthgasms" - some deeply satisfying sensation from the carbonation and sweetness that just makes my mouth water talking about it.
Cokes have 39g of sugar in a 12 oz can!!! Drink these cokes - which can be found almost everywhere - enough times it becomes a habit before you know it.
But once I realize the healthier options I made efforts to cut back and make better choices.

If i'm ever hung over from drinking the night before , I always drink a Coke and feeel 1000 times better with or without a greasy burger. It also helps me to regulate my bowel movements. I'm trying to not drink it but once or twice a week as a treat bc it bloats the f$ck out of me :/ i Can't drink plain water either unless it's flavored with something like Crystal lite , etc.

I like my water flavored too....Have you tried flavoring water with fresh fruit like lemon, limes, or even berries? Crystal lites contain artificial sweetners http://www.livestrong.com/article/41...crystal-light/ sorry to get on the health kick --- just presenting the info

I have a friend who used to be addicted to pepsi. We had kidneys issues after that and she was keep drinking...
Maybe im more sensetive thats why i dont like it. When i drink coke, my kidneys literaly start to twist inside me. I can feel like they are turning inside, probably they are notbut the feel is not nice.
I just reminded. I have another friend who used to drink like a gallon of cola each day. And he was like
-how can you drink a hot tea everyday?
I always drink a hot tea, summer or winter!
So yes im addicted to caffein too)
I never drink soda, i only drink water and coffee.
I know so many people who drink nothing but soda and it just grosses me out. How can you drink a whole 2 litter in a day? The very few times i have drank soda it just make my stomach upset.





Did anyone in here actually bothered to read the article? It's a very stupid article, actually. We all know that drinking any kind of sodas in excess is bad, but the way this article makes it sound is just retarded.




My roommate in college and I were both addicted to Diet Coke. We'd go through almost three 12 packs most days. When it wasn't around we'd both get really agitated. The funny thing is that neither of us had problems quitting smoking for a week here and there. Eventually those '40 Year Old Woman Found Dead Next to Cases of Diet Coke!' headlines got to me and I switched to seltzer. I can't even stand the smell of the stuff anymore. Now that I think of it I did lose weight, but I still get migraines.
