A soda has about 200 calories and tons of sodium. The greater the sodium intake, the greater the thirst. They're hoping, drink more pop, which people do of course.

Oh, and a serving of pop only costs 2 cents.

There's only ONE THING a person should do with soft drinks:

JUST DON'T DRINK!

FACTS: Diet coke/pepsi causes CANCER and along with regular coke/pepsi is a delivery system for an addictive substance. Regular coke/pepsi can cause cancer due to its heavy high fructose corn syrup content, which continually taxes the pancreas and all other endocrine glands. If you are a woman, with all the toxins invading your endocrine (breasts, ovaries, uterus) tissues today, YOU SHOULD NOT DRINK ANY SOFT DRINKS.

Lastly, the cans in which these toxins are delivered are aluminum and cause heavy metal toxicity, which in turn with the regular doses of mercury, arsenic, depleted uranium and others we receive daily, create such severe imbalances in the body, in all tissues, it is simply a matter of time before you become seriously, maybe even deathly ill.

I cringe every time I see some one walk out of the supermarket or drink Diet Coke or Zero. I cringe more with Zero because people are being fooled into believing that they are okay because it doesn’t contain sugar. The aspartame content is far worse and more damaging than the sugar ever could be.
