Is soda harmful?

Soda is very addictive and it is also packed with sugar. Diet soda is sweetend with artificial sweetners so may be carsonogenic (cancer causing). It is fine once in a while but not as a daily treat. The dark tint in the soda causes your teeth to stain. To avoid stained teeth drink a lighter soda like Sprite.

People who eat alot and drink alot of soda is just as bad as being a smoker. Smoking will kill someone and so will poor eating habits.

Maybe not harmful, but not the best thing in the world to consume. Pour a cola product over your car battery sometime and watch what happens as the soda eats away at the corrosion. Could the same thing be happening to a human stomach??

Well the research done by the Duke University and some of the Indian Institute suggest Soda (coke) is carcinogenic..Yet not satisfied with the reply..Open a bottle of coke ;pour into a glass..cut a small piece of your nail..and drop into a glass of coke..and watch it after 5 days..The nail will be dissolved into coke ! Try it and see How Harmful ? and follow what to do next?it's your decision..

Yes..regular soda has tons of sugar & carbs, and diet soda is used with aspartame which is also really bad for you. Soda also depletes you of your calcium for strong bones.

Phosphoric acid, present in most soft drinks, interferes with your body's ability to absorb calcium. This can lead to eventual loss of bone density. The sugar can also cause weight gain and cavities.
