Drinking Soda-Accelerate The Aging Process
There are still so many people who could not go through even a day without drinking sodas. The average American drinks about 57 gallons of soft drinks each year. These soft drinks does have such a delicious fresh taste especially when we drink it while it chilled or at room temperature. The taste could be one thing that gets us addicted to it. In fact, it is so good, that many people drink it with every meal! But, you might wanna think about it if you want to start drinking soda again because the researchers say that the phosphate which is added to these drinks to provide a sharp-burning sensation, is actually can accelerate the aging process.
It is said that the minerals, which also added to processed meats, cakes, and breads, can make our skin and muscles dry out, and also can damage the heart and kidneys. The study, published in the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology Journal (FASEB), indicates that the balance of phosphorus affects the aging process. Researchers have examined the effects of high phosphate content in the three groups of mice. Groups who consume foods with high phosphate content can live 8-15 weeks. While the group who ate a lower phosphate could reach 20 weeks of age.
Frequent consumption of soda drinks may also increase the risk of osteoporosis, especially in people who drinking soda instead of calcium-rich milk. High soda consumption in children poses a significant risk factor for impaired calcification of growing bones.
Several scientific studies also have provided experimental evidence that soft drinks are directly related to weight gain. The relationship between soda drink consumption and body weight is so strong that researchers calculate that for each additional soda consumed, the risk of obesity increases 1.6 times.
"Human beings need a healthy diet, and maintaining the balance of phosphate in their food intake is important for a healthy life and longevity," said Mohammed Razzaque, from the Department of Medicine, Infection and Immunity, Harvard School of Medicine. Therefore, avoid phosphate to enjoy a healthy life and start to consume an anti aging food and drinks.
