Re: s/o HHC
Soooo, I've actually done a lot of research on this and much to my dismay (I looove my Diet Pepsi), it continuously points that soda is just bad... even Diet...
1. It does make you crave more sugary items.
2. It expands your stomach so you can and often will eat more.
3. It prevents water consumption (those who drink soda tend to drink less water).
4. Soda can cause the kidneys to work harder preventing the "flow" of your system...
That being said, I don't think a soda a day is bad but I'm having trouble keeping it to one a day... this is one of the hardest things I've had to work on cutting down/out... argh...
I don't drink a lot of soda to begin with - 1 or 2 a week - but we just bought a SodaStream and I'm seriously in love with it. It may be a good option for anyone trying to kick the habit/be better about their soda drinking.
You make it in 1 liter batches so there's not as much around. The SodaStream mixes have no HFCS and the cola is only 35 calories per 8 oz glass. You can get syrups from other companies, too, that are natural or organic... or make your own flavored sparkling waters.
It's pretty awesome.
