#6) Soda, Diet Soda and Energy Drinks - Chemicals that brew a health crisis in your digestive tract all on their own
by S.D. Wells
Most people who smoke a pack of cigarettes a day know that they are treading on thin ice regarding their health, but how many people realize that drinking 30 or more ounces of diet soda each day could prove to be more lethal than a pack of cigarettes?

And how can diet soda be worse than regular soda?

Even though there are over 7,000 chemicals in one commercial cigarette, the leading chemical in diet soda may actually be breeding more cancer cells in human beings, and thus be leading to malignant tumors sooner in life, according to recent research.

Energy drinks are just as dangerous. These modern day phenomena even tout natural or herbal ingredients to lure you in. What about the children? It's like cigarettes and HFCS. Just another drug with critical health consequences.

A report in the medical journal Pediatrics warns against energy drinks and cited potential harms including heart palpitations, strokes, seizures and sudden death.

There is no prescription drug, and there never will be one, that cures the problems which artificial sweeteners and "energy" drinks create. Want the cure? Just stop consuming them!
