Fizzy drinks contain added sugars in various forms. In addition, they are further enriched with carbon dioxide, which contributes to the negative effects of added sugars. Regular consumption of soda can cause a number of unpleasant he alth problems.
What happens in the body if you regularly drink soda?
Dental problems
Drinking too much sugary sodas can damage your teeth. The sugars in soda cause inflammation in the oral cavity, which can also damage the gums. Additionally, carbonated beverages are acidic in nature, which weakens tooth enamel and makes teeth more susceptible to tooth decay.
Recharge
Getting fat is almost in a towel if you drink soda daily. Carbonated drinks are high in added sugars. Even modifications with artificial sweeteners cause a reaction from the pancreas that causes a large amount of insulin to be released, which in turn leads to fat storage.
A 2016 study published in the journal Nutrients found that even adults who regularly drink diet sodas accumulate up to three times more fat than those who don't.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome is an inflammatory disease that is provoked by foods and drinks that cause an increase in inflammation in the tissues and body. The added sugars in abundance in carbonated drinks have just such an effect on the gastrointestinal tract, triggering a series of unpleasant symptoms such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain.
Blood sugar rise
Blood sugar rises after consuming sweet foods and drinks. This happens not only in diabetics and people with diabetes-predisposing conditions, but in everyone else as well. If you regularly drink soda, it may increase your risk of diabetes. Daily consumption of carbonated drinks leads to a constant increase in blood sugar, which exhausts the pancreas, and this increases the risk of developing diabetes.
High blood pressure
According to a number of studies, regular consumption of carbonated drinks leads to an increase in blood pressure. A 2015 study published in Clinical and Experimental Hypertension found a significant link between fizzy drinks and high blood pressure. The link is again due to the abundant added sugars in these drinks, which cause inflammation in the body, including the cardiovascular system, leading to abnormalities in its functions.
