    Even foods that sound healthy are loaded with sugar such as granola bars and dried fruits which contains a lot of sugar of 4 teaspoons and 21 teaspoons which is a surprise.

    That's actually surprising. I think it's best to just make your own. At least you know what you're putting into your foods

    If you're too busy to do it yourself, stay with organic or freshly cooked foods. If that's not going to work, it's best to make yourself some salad and add boiled egg. That will surely fill you up. I have avoided soda as much as I can and now opt for coffee or tea. It's healthier and I can control the fat and sugar content

    You're right, coffee, tea, or cocoa and healthy beverage and is better than having soda. Drinking gatorade for me is as satisfying as drinking soda and I think it's a good alternative is you just want a more thirst quenching drink than just water

    I read an article that diet soda is tied to stroke risk. Latest research raises concern about diet soda. The findings show that the risk of stroke and heart attack is higher compared to those who do not drink soda at all. Although research is unclear as to what causes it, it should be a wake up call to all of us. If you do enjoy soda, spend some time to exercise and keep a healthy diet.

    I only drink soda if I don't have anymore option and if that is the only drink available to quench my thirst. Otherwise I just go with water because it's a great way to cut on my daily calories

    Many of the people including me are in the habit of eating Junk foods and really like these sorts of soda as well beverages.If you want to know how bad the diet soda is just read the ingredients used in the manufacturing of the diet.
    Hope so that you are not going to try it in future and I have also quit drinking the diet soda.

    I do make it a habit of reading the ingredients of the drinks and food I eat but I don't know some of the ingredients that it says on the back because they use chemical terms. I just try to avoid processed foods as much as I can. However if you come to think about it it's not easy to spot which foods are processed and which are not.
