I think we all know by now all the harmful effects of drinking too much soda. How can we not, new researches come out like every year about the “dangers” of carbonated, caffeinated and sugared drinks. As for myself, I like drinking diet Pepsi or diet Coke once in a while. When I have pizza, you can rest assure that soda is my drink of preference. That’s mostly when I drink soda. And the occasional fast food/drive-thru stops but I’m mostly a water drinker. Having said that, I don’t completely agree on eliminating soda intake completely. I believe on moderation. So if you feel like a can of Diet Coke with your pizza or burger, why not?. But of course, that’s just me.
