| |  | | | | How to stop drinking soda | | The occasional bubbly beverage isn't cause for concern. However, daily soda drinking can affect your health in many ways. Aside from offering essentially no vital nutrients, these sugary drinks could lead to complications like weight gain, tooth decay, insulin resistance, and an increased risk of heart disease or cancer. | | If you're a frequent soda drinker, you might want to cut back to protect your health. These tips can help you do that: | - Reach for a glass of water or coconut water.
- Distract yourself by going for a walk or taking a shower.
- Avoid keeping soda in your home.
- Opt for a healthy sweet treat, like fruit or yogurt.
- Make a mocktail, cup of tea, or another beverage.
