do soft drinks cause loss of bone mass?!


Question:

Answers:
Yes, carbonated soft drinks do cause a loss of bone mass. Also, the caffeine in the drink stimulates Osteoclasts (which breakdown bone) and thus cause a loss of bone mass.

wtf um no who told u that

That seems odd? Are you stating this because you believe that people who drink soft drinks, drink less milk?

No, but it is bad for your teeth if you drink too much. It's always better to just go with something more hydrating like water or gatorade. It's healthier and better on the body.

No! - There has never been any conclusive evidence that drinking any soft drink in moderation will cause bone loss.

When you drink soda you are drinking empty calories, meaning that there is no nutritional value. You may not be replacing valuable vitamins your body uses drinking soda. Like lack of calcium. So eating well balanced meals vs soda is always the better alternative.

Acid in soft drinks cause enamel on teeth to erode.
