Is soda really bad for you?

Question

I think soda migh be bad for me because they are but in alluminum cans instead of glass. Correct me if I'm wrong plz.

Answer 1

It is but not because of the can.

The avg american drinks 1.4 cans of soda a day. That translates into 50lbs!!! Yes 50LBS of sugar a year.

That much sugar can lead to obeisity and even diabetes. So yeah soda is real bad for you.

Answer 2

Soda can be bad for if just drink it every day or too often but, once awhile it's ok just as long as it's in moderaton

Answer 3

regular soda has so much sugar in it that it can easily rot your teeth if you drink more than one or two a day. Being in a metal can has no effects on health, so don't worry about that. I have to disagree with Splenda being a toxic chemical. There simply isn't any long term data on what diet soda will do to you. It hasn't been around long enough. But regular soda will cause tooth decay and weight gain if taken in excess.

Answer 4

Totally, soda is filled with high fructose corn syrup that is terrrible for you.

Diet soda is worse, it uses Splenda which is just a toxic chemical.

Answer 5

stop being such a worry wart, your not going to die from a can of coke

Answer 6

Answer 8

that is right but also dark sodas mess up your teeth

Answer 9

The ingredients that are contained within soda are bad for you but they won't kill you.

It will just deplete your calcium level, stain your teeth, could cause you to have cavities, and you might put on a "little" weight.

Nothing to stress yourself out about but if your trying to stay fit and or trying to you know impress someone then just minimize the amount of soda you drink.

Answer 10

The sugars and acids in sodas erode the stomach lining and wear away tooth enamel. It's bad for you because of the ingredients not what type of bottle its in.

Answer 11

yes it might taste good but it has allot of cafeen and calories and some soda has fat and sugar
