Soda
Soda, known for its high sugar content, holds approximately ten teaspoons of sugar per can. Overconsumption of soda leads to increased insulin production, potentially elevating diabetes and cancer risks. Moreover, recent reports have linked the caramel coloring present in soda to a 58% greater risk of cancer.
If you don’t see yourself downing ten whole teaspoons of sugar at a go, why do you see the need to take a soda? Substituting soda with healthier beverage options can significantly mitigate these risks. This is also a side note that diet sodas are not a better alternative as they contain artificial sweeteners that your Gastrointestinal tract will struggle to process. [5]
