Good day, Fellas. I wanna know whether taking just a soft drink once everyday is bad to the health. From on Sarturday to Monday , i have been taking a soft(40cl Mirinda) along with food every afternoon. It was only yesterday that i didn't take a soft drink. No e be say e no hungry me ooo. I had to forcefully resist the urge of taking it. I felt there could be side effects.

Ingesting the chemicals in processed drinks every day is definitely tantamount to playing with your life...

The artificial sugar alone is bad for your liver, skin and pancreas. Even if you are more into daily fitness programs than Cristiano Ronaldo, it will still be prudent to desist from such unhealthy diet.

Try substituting with fruits like water melon, oranges, etc.

If you don't gym or do vigorous exercise everyday, don't take it everyday.

Depends on your output.
But if you are not doing a damn physically demanding job, that excess sugar (and these drinks contain a LOT of sugar) will build up in your system and boy, with age, it will be excruciatingly hard to get rid of it.... the consequential fat build up.

Bros, it's just 40cl, just once in a day. Is it too much? I just managed to resist the urge yesterday even though resisting the urge wasn't that easy. By the way, i like to use am step down my afternoon food, like rice, BB(Bread and Beans) etc.

20% of that 40cl may actually be made up of sugar, which is a lot to be taken daily, be careful!!
I used to drink coke like this until I forcefully stopped it by myself and now I hardly drink coke once a week.

If you excercise daily and adequately and don't live sedentary life style, then there is nothing wrong with it

Stupid question. White people take soft drinks instead of water and suffer zero demerits. Doctors say it’s bad, their examples are mostly extremes. A normal person can break down three to four bottles a day for almost three decades.

We should all learn to be responsible. Later on in life, if he is suffering from the effects of excess intake of soft drinks, I'm sure his family, friends and well wishers would be affected in a way too.

Soft drinks are the last things that freak me, the side effects apart. I take them quite all right, but I'll take water over any drink any day.

They contain sugar as well, just not the poor quality type and not in any such quantities as in sodas.

It's very bad

Don't drink soft drink too much a day

Instead drink water or zobo or smoothies

Your regular soft drinks are worse than alcoholic drinks.. reason I laugh at some muslims who don't take alcohol but drink bigi and co. like their lives depend on it.

Ignorance is truly a disease...only if you know the amount of sugar present in those beer that you drink...or because alcohol taste bitter then you think the sugar content is low compared to soft drinks??

True... I mentioned them since he is clearly young, and they can serve as a better alternative to his sweet cravings.

You will never know sugar itself is addictive until you try to stop taking it. I went on 3months without soda recently, that period was when people started tempting me with soda, still I resist it.

Exercise helps to burn excess of it in the body.

Alcohol is forbidden in Islam.

Soft drinks aren't.

So what's your point?

It does.

My point is, those who gym regularly do it for muscle and not fat. Excess Soft drinks eventually gives you fat, hence the reason they abstain from it.

Not saying soft drinks are bad but they are not drugs and shouldn't be taken everyday.

The problem is the amount of sugar they contain.

If you just want a sweet, carbonated beverage, get a seltzer and put a bit of sugar and a piece of fruit in it. You could also mix a little fruit juice into seltzer.

We will all die, but sometimes our choices bring death closer or further.. Just like telling a young chap that he can become a cultist after all JEW die too.

Soft drinks are as bad as you can think, we have so many alien sicknesses in Africa today and it's all because of things like this. The producer only cares about flavor and not human health. They can mix anything just to attain their result... You take fanta, see your tongue dey orange and you are smiling, what about your orange kidney? Did you see that one too...
