So does drinking carbonated drinks really help you live longer? Yuan Chunhua, a nutritionist at Yueyang Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told the reporter: "There are many factors that affect human life, among which genes are
Decisive, this old man should be a special case, don't blindly follow the practice of drinking three bottles of carbonated drinks every day. Besides carbon dioxide gas, carbonated drinks also contain additives such as fructose, spices, caffeine, pigments and phosphoric acid.
Agent, long-term drinking is not good for your health. "
Although carbonated drinks are delicious, excessive intake is harmful to health. Carbonated drinks contain a lot of high fructose syrup. Drinking carbonated drinks for a long time will not only lead to obesity, but also increase the risk of gout, Yuan Chun.
Hua said: "Fructose has the potential to induce uric acid secretion.
, will aggravate the condition of gout patients. The so-called' sugar-free cola' sold in the market is a sweetener. Although sweeteners will not participate in blood sugar metabolism, they will stimulate appetite and lead to obesity, which will lead to diabetes caused by obesity.
Metabolic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. "
Carbonated drinks such as cola contain inorganic phosphorus, which will affect the absorption of calcium. Yuan Chunhua said: "Adding phosphoric acid to carbonated drinks such as cola can improve the taste of drinking, but inorganic phosphorus can be absorbed by human body 100%, thus affecting the absorption of trace elements such as calcium and iron, and large intake may lead to osteoporosis. Inorganic phosphorus in carbonated drinks will also increase the burden of renal function. "
In addition, carbonated drinks such as cola contain acidic substances such as carbonic acid and phosphoric acid, which will make the calcium and phosphorus on the tooth surface fall off and the structure become loose. In particular, it is not recommended for growing children to drink carbonated drinks.
Soda is actually a carbonated drink. At present, there are two kinds of soda water on the market: one is natural soda water, which is weakly alkaline water containing various minerals, trace elements and sodium bicarbonate; The other is soda water, that is, synthetic soda water, which is mainly made by pressing carbon dioxide into pure water and adding sweeteners and spices.
Yuan Chunhua said that "soda drink" containing carbon dioxide and weakly alkaline soda water are completely two concepts. Because the mineral elements of natural soda water are ionic, they are more easily absorbed by the human body; However, artificial soda water does not have this. Contains a large number of added ingredients, which may also cause an increase in blood sugar and blood lipids.
Although the weak alkalinity of natural soda water does have a certain health care function, such as alkalizing urine to promote uric acid dissolution and relieve gout to some extent, the legendary "soda water is alkaline and can improve the human body."
Acidic constitution "is purely a rumor. Yuan Chunhua told reporters: "The normal pH value of human blood is 7.35~7.45, which is weakly alkaline, while a healthy human body has a complete buffer system, which can keep the blood pH value at a positive level.
Constant range.
The human body has a perfect acid-base regulation mechanism and is not easily changed by external food or drink. The gastrointestinal tract can quickly adjust the pH value of weakly alkaline soda water entering the body to the pH value of the internal environment of the body through its own adjustment function. Yuan Chunhua reminded that drinking too much soda will lead to excessive sodium in the diet, especially for patients with hypertension.
Someone once said that when you succeed, your shit will smell good. It means the same thing. When you live to 100 years old, people will believe you when you say you drink pesticides.
