The 'I Feel Like Being Healthier' Thread!
ruyi:
Diet soda might not be good for you.
I dunno. If you want to drink less sugary beverages, try forcing yourself to only drink water for a week, maybe? Then if you try soda afterward you will notice how it is way too sweet.
Scandanavian War Machine:
i don't know much about soda in terms of carbs or sugers or anything like that but i do know that most sodas wreak havok on your ph balance.
then again, i don't really know what your ph balance determines exactly so i still drink soda. no cola though, cola is the worst (plus i personally find it disgusting; well, unless there's whiskey in it :-D).
Caleb:
I think the real hidden danger in some sodas is the sodium content.
In most diet sodas it's pretty low but in others it's pretty high.
For example in Diet Sunkist it's: 130mg or 5% of your DRA.
So down like 2 cans of that and you just took in as much salt as two slices of wheat bread.
Or you are like me and have no self control and drink like 5 of them per day. That's like a quarter of your salt intake.
jhocking:
My tastes as far as drink are kinda unusual. Like, in college I used to drink like a case of Mountain Dew a week, but it was no trouble at all for me to just switch one day to only drinking water. Same for milk; used to drink a ton, just decided one day not to drink it anymore, and that was that, I never missed it or anything. Not only have I drank water almost exclusively for as long as I can remember, I prefer it room temperature. People think I'm weird because I keep jugs of water on top of the fridge rather than inside, but I really do prefer room temperature water.
Katherine:
I do too! People always give me odd looks when I buy room temperature water instead of the cold stuff out of the coolers.
