COLAS- DO NOTHING BUT HARM TO THE BODY

Colas - the soft drinks also known as soda in US.

It is a fad among misguided and untutored youth of our country.
Parents are to be blamed, since knowingly they encourage their children, often blaming their kids saying " They like colas and nothing else". In the first place who taught them and allowed them to indulge in drinking colas. Parents of children should think, youth should refrain from colas. The notion that drinking colas is the fashionable trend nowadays, is nothing but very pathetic to say the least. If they just give their time to the ill effects it does to the body, they will stay away from it.

A can of cola, 330 ml, contains 10 teaspoons sugar and about 50 mg of caffeine, along with artificial colours and sulphates.

Cola's effects on the body:
1)In 10 minutes, after having cola, body system is hit by a huge dose of sugar and in another 10 minutes, body sugar level shoots up and liver does it work and turn it into fat.

2)In 40 minutes, 50 mg of caffeine dilates the pupil, raises blood pressure. This high sugar and pressure gives the body a feeling pf 'high'. But soon afterwards the sugar level crashes and body feels fatigue, tiredness and lethargy. When cola taken twice or thrice a day, the body will also have to awing between high and low sugar levels, the whole day.
