7 Beverages To Stop Consuming Today

Lately I’ve been focusing on all the foods we should stop consuming, but what about beverages which can account for up to 30 percent of our daily calorie intake? Many of us take for granted all those calorie-laden lattes, soft drinks and other sweetened beverages, however the real problem is not related to calories, but something much worse.
Here are 7 beverages you should avoid consuming at any time, for your health and your waist line:
1. Soft Drinks (soda, pop, carbonated beverages, fizzy drinks, etc.)
There isn’t enough bad things to say about soft drinks of any kind. Soft drinks account for more than a quarter of all drinks consumed in the United States. That works out to at least one 12-ounce can per day for every man, woman and child. They are estimated to be at least one-third of the problem related to child obesity. Carbonated soda pop provides more added sugar in a typical 2-year-old toddler’s diet than cookies, candies and ice cream combined.
Many sodas and diet soft drinks approach the pH level of battery acid in terms of corrosiveness and erosion of tooth enamel.
Besides the fact that diet soda causes dehydration, weight gain, mineral depletion, diabetes and caffeine addiction, research shows they’re also responsible for an increased risk of vascular events such as stroke, heart attack, and vascular death.
Artificially sweetened soft drinks are marketed as healthier alternatives to sugar-sweetened beverages, due to their lack of calories. However, past research has shown very serious long-term health consequences due to highly toxic additives and artificial sweeteners such as sodium benzoate, aspartame, acesulfame potassium, sucralose and high-fructose corn syrup.
Men who drink just one 300ml can of soda per day are much more likely to require treatment for a serious form of cancer than those who never consumed the drink. One soda a day can raise aggressive cancer risk by 40 percent.
One study of more than 66,000 women found those who drank artificially sweetened drinks were more 60 percent more likely to develop diabetes than those who indulged in regular versions of the same beverage.
Another recent study published in the journal Respirology revealed that soft drink consumption isassociated with lung and breathing disorders including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
2. Tap Water
If you’re still drinking tap water, you may be hiding from a flurry of information exposing its dangers.
Only 91 contaminants are regulated by the Safe Drinking Water Act, yet more than 60,000 chemicals are used within the United States, according to Environmental Protection Agency estimates. Government and independent scientists have scrutinized thousands of those chemicals in recent decades, and identified hundreds associated with a risk of cancer and other diseases at small concentrations in drinking water, according to an analysis of government records by The New York Times.
Many readers know fluoride is a chemical waste product of the fertilizer industry that is problematic environmentally in regard to how to dispose of it. So the government and the industry figured out that putting it in our drinking water would solve the problem.
Studies have shown that fluoride can pull lead from pipes and add that to the poisonous mix coming from our taps. That might be the reason fluoride also seems to bring copper and aluminum with it as well as the lead.
Animal studies have demonstrated evidence of fluoride’s toxic effects on brain tissue. These include brain cell damage, reduced lipid content, impairment in anti-oxidant defense systems, increased aluminum uptake, and the formation of beta-amyloid plaques. These are the plaques which are indicative of Alzheimer’s Disease. Maybe this explains why many dogs seem to prefer to drink from puddles than their own tap-filled water dishes.
Depending on the country, cardiovascular disease is typically either the number one or two cause of death. A new study published in Nuclear Medicine Communications Journal has concluded that increased uptake of fluoride in arteries may be associated with an increased cardiovascular risk.
Just in case the toxicity levels of fluoride were not sufficient in the water supply, are now proposing thatlithium could soon be added to drinking water.
An investigation by the Associated Press (AP) has also revealed that the drinking water of at least 41 million people in the United States is contaminated with pharmaceutical drugs.
Drinking tap water contaminated with perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a serious health risk. The highest measured levels of PFOA in human blood in the US, other than factory exposures, are in people who have consumed PFOA contaminated tap water.
Lead pipes once used routinely in municipal water distribution systems are a well-recognized as a source of dangerous lead contamination. Construction crews have been feverishly replacing these pipes in major cities in Canada and the U.S, but only partially using brass in conjunction with copper lines. The research shows that joining old lead pipes with new copper lines using brass fittings spurs galvanic corrosion that can dramatically increase the amount of lead released into drinking water supplies.

Diet sodas are make with phony sugars that some say are pesticide poison! And the real sodas have so much sugar it can eventually give you a diabetic attack on your pancreas, methinks.
And not many people realize Arizona Tea is just a worse with the sugar.
I haven’t seen any sodas with sugar in them recently.
They are all sweetened with HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP!
And: Never drink canned liquids!
Aluminum is known to over decades slowly accumulate in the brain, combining with certain proteins, and thus is a heavily contributing factor for Alzheimer. But the aluminum industry does all it can to suppress this information.
Therefore: also throw all cooking utensils made from aluminum out of the house!
Aluminum is a cheap reactive metal as electricians learned when houses burnt down that used them as wiring.
Only thing good for is the glass on the USS Enterprise for when they can make transparent aluminum.
I guess we all better stop breathing on heavy geo-engineering days. That crap they spray on us is mostly aluminum.
All the more reason to avoid canned chicken. To be serious for a second, also avoid teflon. It has been known to be bad for people and chickens alike.

Don’t worry. When the time comes you will have forgotten it…

I was in the supermarket recently, and just out of curiosity, (since I haven’t drank any kind of soda for years), I started reading labels in the soda aisle.
I COULD NOT FIND ANY BRAND THAT WAS NOT SWEETENED WITH HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP!
I COULD ALSO NOT FIND ANY DIET SODAS THAT WERE NOT SWEETENED WITH ASPARTAME!
Mexican Coca-Cola is still made with REAL sugar. you find it’s in the glass bottles. can be found at Sam’s Club.
their are a few kinds of sodas without High Fructose. They are ( Throwbacks ), Pepsi corporation makes those. They make mountain dew throwbacks , and pepsi. That is all my family drinks. I rarely drink any sodas with high fructose. But yes pepsi does make sodas with real sugar.
