You're not alone... I'm currently fighting an addiction to RC COLA.

And I'm sorry to say this but I'm gradually losing the war.

I m addicted to carbonated drinks and it's beginning to sound weird and I can hardly do without taking like 3 a day in every meal I take.

It's like there's a force propelling me to always take carbonated drinks.

Pls how do I get rid of such unhealthy habits?
same here, I only reduce to 33cl

If you are a woman, your estrogen might delay effects till your forties and they stories of sudden stroke, diabetes, BP begin to arise. Curb it now.... Men most times the effect is quicker but they either don't take note on time due to life pressures or they just form macho until similar effects above begin to arise.

I try to substitute with tea, lime/lemon water, acv, cocoa tea, etc. Discipline is important here as it's actually not easy.

Me too, hard do I go on a meal without a chill coke or a juice besides... but I prefer juice on a normal day but when the weather is hot, I go for caffeine 2 in a day.
I hardly drink 1liter of bottled water a day.
Re: Help I'm Addicted To Carbonated Drinks. by pansophist(m): 8:59pm On Feb 01, 2023
Sodas have a substance in it knows as additive, and that's why you're always taking more because it's like that by design.

Start reducing the amount you drink per day. So go from two, then to one, and drink lots of water in between. Go slowly. That's the way out.

I also noticed that any time I drink coke, I want to drink more, but because I know about how addiction works, I just ignore the urge, drink water and force myself to sleep, then my body reset to normal in day or two. Do the same.

I used to be an addict and sometimes, I felt pity for myself because of the number of bottles I drank every day and no matter what I was told about the consequences of constant high sugar consumption, I still didn't stop until I was faced with what feared me.

You 'might likely' not come out of this until you're hit with a very terrible illness because it's very difficult trying to stop it on your own. I have stayed for over 3 weeks without taking a bottle of such drinks and this is a history.

you craving for sugar this much is a sign of acute diabetes...go and check you blood sugar level and try to stop it immediately...with this rate you might lose an arm or leg in the future...this is not God forbid matter... I'm being blunt..na health matter be this...


drink water only..add lime or lemon or orange to the water..so that water it will taste better for you...I don't know your age,but the earlier you stay away from carbonated drinks the better for you...good luck
or even loss a head🤣🤣🤣

All these na poisons.
Plain alcohol,
Refined or synthetic sugar.
Energy drinks.
Hydrogenated oil,
Seed oil,
Milk
Hot food in cellophane package.

Cancer dey rejoice for cells wey sugar boku especially refined sugar.
