Hi Aishu ,

Thanks for the reply and for telling your relatives and friends.

Hi spadhana,

Thanks for your comments. Good that you gave up drinking all these fizz drinks. How did u manage to stop having sprite so soon? Usually it takes time to give up. But you have done it . Great job.

Hi Sharadha..
We both share same name except that I dont have h's :)
Its really a very good article. After reading your article, I started thinking that we all know that carbonated drinks do harm. but how many of us really taking it seriously?
We all think, drinking one glass doesnt harm. but we forget that one glass is added up to the previous count..
Even our kids also follow us..
Hopefully, everyone will be able to reduce the intake of carbonated drinks.
Thanks.. for the article.. am rightaway forwarding it to my friends and relatives. :)

Cheers

Hi Sarada,

Thanks for your motivating reply & for forwarding it to others.. Sometimes our mind doesn't take advices if it is just said as a piece of advice rather than narrating with a real life incident.

dear friends,

this incident happened to one of my husband's cousin, aged 20 years, last year,

that guy's favourite drink was only pepsi or coke, infact he was living with these drinks...............morning breakfast with a glass of pepsi or coke, afternoon lunch with a glass of coke or pepsi, night dinner with a glass of pepsi or coke..........and inbetween may be 3 to 4 glasses of pepsi or coke.................

one day he could not get up from the bed due to severe stomach pain...........and later blood vomitting...............he was taken to almost all good hospitals in and around salem, tamilnadu, no doctors could tell why this was happening, inspite of spending 80 thousand to 1 lac ...................

finally, his parents took him to a homoepathic doctor............the first question he asked whether he takes pepsi and coke very frequently..............and yes he was living with only pepsi and coke.............then he took a treatment for 3 months and he is perfectly alright............but the trauma the parents undergone, the pain that guy had.............God, saved his live....... and he was the only son for them.........

there is a strict " NO " for any aerated drinks at my house...............we only have tender coconuts or fresh juices when we go out................

dear sharadha,

a really good info on these drinks..................thanks a lot dear for posting such a good info on IL

love
