RE: AFTERMATH OF SODA CONSUMPTION

in StemSocial9 months ago

I'd be interesting to hear anything about soda water, which is carbonated but otherwise just water. Some diabetics I know have conflicting opinions and claim doctors said it was the carbonated water that causes various problems. But... I'm skeptical.

Sort:  

Although soda water does not contain sugar, unlike soda drinks. It is made with sodium in the form of sodium bicarbonate which is not good for a diabetic. The sodium in the water causes water retention and increases blood volume and blood pressure.

I doubt if can directly cause type 2 diabetes alone, but if it is combined with other unhealthy lifestyle factors like a sedentary lifestyle, alcoholism, and unhealthy eating habits, type2 diabetes mellitus might set in.

Thanks for stopping by.
