Why You Should Avoid Sugary Drinks
While it's common knowledge that our bodies are made
up of mostly water, and therefore we should continuously
be drinking it, there are reasons as to why we should
actually, avoid sugary drinks altogether.
So, if you’re someone who is addicted to this sweet treat,
keep on reading, because you may be shocked to find out just
how bad that delicious drink is for you!
Whenever you drink your calories, be it in the form of soda
or an alcoholic beverage, your brain gets thrown off track.
You see, when we consume solid food our brain is able to
calculate the number of calories. But that's not the case when
drinking our calories.
Our brain goes, ‘Wait, what’s going on here? Why can’t I figure
these calories out?’
In addition to consuming more calories, drinking this stuff
can also have some nasty, long-term effects on your overall health.
Just because you can’t see it on the outside doesn’t mean that
other stuff is going on internally!
Type 2 diabetes is a national epidemic in America, thanks to
the availability and relatively low-cost of soda and sugary,
liquid concoctions.
All of that extra sugar wreaks havoc on our metabolism, so
it ends up going into overdrive. Sometimes so much that we
lose our ability to break down sugar and end up with type 2
diabetes, which is, in its most simplistic form, the inability
to process sugar.
Our bodies work hard enough as it is, so let’s not give them
even more work!
