Original title: In the hot summer, come to a cup of Coke to relieve the heat? What are the dangers of drinking Coke for a long time?

When the hot summer comes, is there anything that cannot be solved with a cup of happy fat house water? If not, then two cups!

Coke with ice seems to be a great summer treat! And there are many people who think that Coke is an unhealthy drink and should be avoided

In fact, everyone has more or less doubts about drinks such as Coke.

What are the dangers of drinking Coke for a long time?

Even if it is "unstoppable", Coke cannot be drunk as water

The sugar content of cola is relatively high, and in terms of nutritional value, it is equivalent to pure energy food

In addition, the pH value of cola is relatively low, which is a highly acidic beverage

Drinking cola for a long time can easily reduce the pH value in our mouth and cause demineralization of tooth enamel.

In addition, drinking too much cola or drinking it for a long time may irritate the gastric mucosa, and the decomposed carbon dioxide may also cause symptoms such as bloating and acid reflux

Therefore, Coke can be drunk in moderation, but not for a long time or in large quantities

Are sugar-free drinks healthier?

Beverages such as diet cola will use sweeteners instead of sugar to maintain the taste, such as aspartame and ak sugar (acesulfame potassium)

The sweetness of food is generally evaluated with sucrose, and the sweetness of sweeteners is about tens to thousands of times that of sucrose.

Moreover, the use of multiple sweeteners at the same time can generally produce synergistic effects, achieving the effect of 1+1>2

From a nutritional and safety point of view, sugar-free beverages that replace sugar with sweeteners provide almost no nutrients and are safe to drink in moderation

However, considering that sweeteners can often stimulate our brains to produce some excitement, such as increasing appetite, drinking too much or drinking for a long time may increase our intake of other foods, resulting in unbalanced and excessive energy intake, It accumulates in the body and converts it into fat

Therefore, sugar-free drinks should also be consumed in moderation
