Just in case the obesity-promoting, tooth-decaying, and nutrient-robbing effects of commercial soft drinks weren't enough......here's yet another reason why we all should avoid sodas. The caramel coloring used in sodas like Coca-Cola and Pepsi has been shown to promote lung, liver, and thyroid cancer in lab rats and mice.
Some great alternatives to soda include lemon water, kombucha, herbal iced tea, and homemade water-kefir sodas. Lemon water promotes liver detoxification pathways, herbal teas have a myriad of health benefits depending on the specific herbs, and kombucha and homemade sodas contain beneficial probiotics.
