Soda pop study
Anyone read this:
http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/cont...A.107.689935v1 Pretty amazing. I'm not at all surprised that pop is this bad for you I'm just kind of shocked that sugar and caffeine seemed to be irrelevant. Anyone think it's the phosphoric acid? http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn5002 http://www.medpagetoday.com/Endocrin...ndrome/tb/6225 http://news.yahoo.com/s/hsn/20070723...ithcardiacrisk Both cancer and cardio. Ironically beer, coffee, and tea seem to be good for you in moderation. (different studies)

The link from newscientist.com indicates that a plausible explanation is the fizziness or carbonation in soda that distends the stomach quite a bit more than regular water, causing a greater incidence of acid reflux, which alters ph balances, etc. It seems that beer would have this same problem. Can you shed some more light on this? It痴 beer that I知 really interested in, particularly micro brews. Please tell me they are healthy for me.

I知 going to have to read your links again. I missed the part where beer is good for you. [/ QUOTE ] only in moderation though. I didn't provide any links on beer, tea or coffee. I will have to fix that in the future but I'm short on time right now. Here's something to get you started: http://nutrition.about.com/od/hydrat..._Nutrition.htm that's incomplete but I will post more later. Try searching folix acid, polyphenols, and antioxidants.

proper beer isn't carbinated. [/ QUOTE ] Proper beer is naturally carbonated (The CO2 from fermentation is retained in the beer). Most mass produced beers are at least partly artificially carbonated (CO2 from other sources is added).

Re: Soda pop study
These effects are pretty small, though. From the abstract, it said that metabolic problems occurred in 18.7% of the <1 soda/day group and 22.something% of those in the >1 soda/day camp.
