Why Is Soda Bad

Why Soda is Bad for You

We already know soda is bad for you but why is it as bad as everyone says it is? A single can of soda contains the equivalent of 10 teaspoons of sugar(Ten). Most Americans consume fifty-six gallons of soda alone in just a year. Now think about how many sodas it would take to make a gallon and how much sugar is in one soda. I would try telling you something good about soda but there is absolutely nothing good about it, because it has no positives.

The Negatives

Tap water can contain heavy metal traces, fluoride, and unsafe levels of chlorine therefore makes it awful to use. The biggest reason of all

First remember that the best things to drink are veggie and fruit juices, milk, coffee, and water. Second You don’t have to completely cut soda out, you just need to drink less frequently. Next if you must drink something fizzy try club soda with fresh fruit or Kombucha which is a drink naturally fizzy, sweet, has lots of vitamins, and can be made at home. Just keep in mind that you can still drink soda but try as little as you can you.

Conclusion

Overall you have read lots of bad facts about soda but you've only scratched the surface, there are still plenty more facts to discover. In my opinion we need to cut back on soft drinks and have more drinks with more nutritional value.

In conclusion, This is all my opinion on why soda is bad for you and why you should consider cutting back for your family and your
