A simple look at the label of the drink next to me:
it contains glucose-fructose and/or sugar, citric acid, flavours, malic acid, sodium citrate, sodium benzoat.
Many drinks have artificial flavours or colourants.
Question: are not this potentially dangerous for health , especially if you drink on a regular basis, since they are mostly artificial chemicals?
Thanks
How often shall we drink these products ?
I know they taste good. I don't talk only about Cola or Pepsi but all commercial drinks in stores.

Heavy use of carbonated sodas may lead to health problems involving the tummy, kidney...and yes, may even lead to diabetes.
Enjoy sodas with common sense MODERATION.

Well drinks like Coke, Pepsi, and Sprite are very high in sugar and can cause cavities and other health problems. Anything high in glucose-fructose/sugar can cause health problems. I am no expert but if I were you I would not drink a lot of commercial drinks. Maybe only 1-4 a week. Over that you would want to drink a lot of water to insure you were getting enough because commercial products could make you drink less water.

They are not dangerous, but they aren't healthy, especially because of the sugar and the acids. Mainly they mean a risk to your teeth, so try not drinking too much.

The problem with this kind of drinks is that they make the body to be very acidic and an acidic body is a den of diseases.
