You've kind of answered your own question. Drinking soda can cause weight gain. If you stopped drinking soda, a 12 oz can of Coke holds 160 calories, in a week, if you did not replace those missing calories with a substitute, you could reduce your calorie intake by that much for each Coke you don't drink.
That means, if you drink 10 Cokes in a week, and stop, you'll lose 1600 calories worth of nothing but caramel coloring, sugar, and carbonation. Substitute a Coke with a 12 oz glass of water. If you drank 10 a week, just substitute half of those with water and you'll reduce calorie intake by 800 calories.
That is great! Substituting diet sodas does nothing to improve your life, though. Your body is designed to "believe" that the diet soda is actually the real thing, and will not help you one bit.It will process it as though it was full of sugar and give you the same results.
Soda can also cause you to contract Type II diabetes. There is a lot of sugar in soda and this, if not processed properly, can lead to diabetes.By eliminating any soda from your diet, you can put the diabetes in control and you won't need to take medication, however it is better to not get yourself into that situation. For every glass of soda you should also drink a glass of water.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
