I drink about 2-3 sodas a week (some weeks none at all). I also drink about 80 ounces of water a day. Anytime you use soda or any other liquid as a substitute for water, you will run into health problems. But having a sugar and caffiene-laden drink when you know you have to go to the gym but just need a burst of energy is not necesarily a bad thing. Everything in moderation, including moderation.

I believe that is what Melissa is referring to, not the distilled water. I’ve also heard that phosphoric acid leaches calcium from our bones, so drinking sodas will accelerlate bone density loss.

I COMPLETELY agree. I can see where people might be addicted to the flavors but once you start drinking water, you really just can't understand why you bother spending extra money on pop.

Distilled water leeches nutrients from the body, which leads to deficiencies that can exacerbate illness and disease. I would like to add the use of distilled water in soft drink production.
