Carbonated Drinks and Acidity
The American pasttime Carbonated drinks
We see them everywhere Large delivery trucks pulling up to grocery store outlets or convenience stores, vending machines, cafeteria lines You name a place and we'll find them as part of our daily lives
From an energy science view the problem is that they are imbalancing for all of us; that is, they produce dis-ease in the physiology
Why? It's due to the acidity and recently the Fooducate blog had a nice post on how acidic these foods are http://bit.ly/aGQwPp
This damaging effect to the enamel of our teeth is a health issue similar to smoking and our obesity Tooth decay can be related to consumption
I recently discussed the problem of the sugar but the other problem is acidity
The acidity affects the teeth but also over time will begin provoking the stomach and produce heartburn and acid reflux or GERD(gastroesophageal reflux disease)
What can we do?
Limit our intake of carbonated drinks
Brush your teeth after consumption if we do drink them
Find substitutes for the"fizzies"
Notice how you feel after consumption Do you feel gassy, bloated, have heartburn?
Try not to use ice with the drink
Educate your children
Until tomorrow To health as a Skill Love DrBill
