Thought I would pass along some information concerning excess sugar in the diet. Very informative. ( The link in the text below is for free information)
To quickly refresh your memory: Two of the big killers in
soda are sugar and phosphoric acid.
In addition to the weight gain it creates, sugar increases
insulin in your blood and can cause or worsen:
- asthma
- diabetes
- heart disease
- gallstones
- high blood pressure
- arthritis
- mood swings and personality changes
- mental illness and nervous disorders
- concentration and learning difficulties in children
And when the phosphoric acid from soda gets into your
system, it throws your delicate balance of minerals way out
of whack.
There should be a 2 to 1 ratio of calcium to phosphorus in
your body. When you drink soda, you get deluged with extra
phosphorus. In reaction, your body releases extra calcium
into the bloodstream, trying to restore the 2 : 1 balance.
You may ask, "Where does the body get the extra calcium?"
The answer: From your bones.
That's right--every soda you drink leeches calcium from
your bones and organs.
Is it any wonder why the US has more osteoporosis than
anywhere in the world?
We lead the world in osteoporosis, in part, because we
lead the world in soda consumption at 600 12-ounce servings
per person per year--that's nearly 60 gallons for each man,
woman and child each year.
Here's a neat factoid: It takes 32 glasses of water to
neutralize the acid from just one glass of soda in your
body. That's a lot of acid!
Some people with good intentions think that instead
they'll be healthier by drinking sports drinks, energy
drinks, vitamin-enriched waters or similar beverages.
Don't be fooled by the "health" claims made by the
manufacturers of these drinks. You'd be better off
drinking dirty dishwater. No joke.
These "health" drinks are NOT healthy. They are just
marketed that way for one reason and one reason alone:
Profits.
Here are some "healthy" drinks and their major ingredients:
* Gatorade G2: Water, sucrose (sugar), high fructose corn
syrup (the worst form of sugar on the planet) and citric
acid (another bone-brittling form of acid for your body to
expend minerals to neutralize).
* Aquafina Alive Wellness Water: Water, white grape juice
concentrate (mainly sugar), phosphoric acid (just like soda).
* Red Bull: Carbonated water, sucrose (sugar), glucose
(more sugar), caffeine.
* Sobe Life Water: Water, sugar, citric acid and ascorbic
acid (two more acids for your body to fight with its
minerals).
* Vitamin Water: Water, crystalline fructose (sugar),
cane sugar, citric acid.
* Gatorade: Water, sucrose syrup (sugar), high fructose
corn syrup (see G2 above) and citric acid.
* Dasani Plus: Water, citric acid, phosphoric acid (just
like soda).
Listen, my dear friend, don't let the beverage giants
trick you with their multi-million dollar marketing
campaigns and brainwash you into thinking their sugar and
acid creations are actually good for you.
These drinks boast that they're fortified with vitamins
and minerals (to make them appear healthy). But since your
body can't possibly neutralize all the acid they cause, it
can't even use any of those added nutrients. Ironic, huh?
So the claim that these drinks are healthy because of
added nutrients is just a joke and a marketing ploy.
The beverage giants are led by their marketing divisions
whose sole purpose is profits. And there are people in
these organizations who know what I'm telling you now.
So the answer to the question is yes, they knowingly
jeopardize and harm the health of billions with their
drinks--getting kids (and adults) addicted to the sugar--
and sleep like babies at night while sweet visions of
dollar signs dance in their heads.
If you want to be bursting with energy, be oxygenated
and enjoy a long life, you must learn the drinks that
ARE truly good for you.
