"The American Heart Association" published the results of a study according to which the most harmful to the human body can be considered a dietary soda. Scientific experts strongly recommend that those who constantly drink it, reduce the consumption of the drink, and then completely exclude from the diet.

Carbonated drinks with sugar substitutes, which are considered dietary, increase the risk of stroke and dementia, experts of the Heart Association.

"Using at least one can of soda without sugar a day, a person triples his risk of stroke and 2.9 times - the risk of developing dementia," the report prepared by them.

In dietary carbonated sugar instead of sugar, various artificial sweeteners. For example, aspartame. Preliminary studies showed that, when ingested, aspartame breaks down into phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol, toxic to the body.

In addition, aspartame has the property of accumulating in the brain and causing abnormal activity of its nerve cells. Together with other substances in dietary carbonated beverages, it gives a high toxic load on the liver and contributes to the accumulation of toxic deposits in the intestinal tract.

Do not forget that carbonated drinks contain an acid, the high content of which in the body leads to rapid aging. Among other consequences of this process - inflammation and destruction of tissues.
