coca cola rank as the highest soft drinks seller in town, now it's summer soft drinks are people favorite during snacks with bread, cakes,chips, fries and any foods with it. it's in bottle, can and etc...from home, picnics to parties every body love it!
I wonder what benefit people could get other than satisfy thirst! what sofdrinks you love most?

i'm not really a fan of softdrinks. given a choice, i would rather have an orange juice or an ice tea. however, to answer your question, i would say my favorite is sprite. it really tastes good. i love it because it really quenches your thirst. the only problem i have with softdrinks is the high sugar content. it makes me worried that if i drink too much of it, i might have diabetes one day. i've read that one of the main causes of obesity and diabetes are softdrinks. i think drinking it in moderation is safe. but everything in excess will always have undersirable effects.

Other than the taste I don't think there is any benefit to it at all. Most of us just drink it because we like it. I drink diet soda myself, which is not much better, but I can not have a lot of regular sugar so diet is the way to go for me. My current favorite soda is Diet Cherry Pepsi. It is so good, it has just a hint of cherry in it which makes it awesome.. I try not to drink it more than once a day though.

In general soft drinks have a very high sugar content. This, by itself, is detrimental to health. If you do not believe me, wait until the bubbles have subsided, then drink it. It is also said to increase the rate of gum receding.
Since it can contribute to various medical conditions like diabetes and obesity, I prefer not to drink Coke or similar drinks.

Yeah, though there is sometimes a positive cause to intake or drink some soft drink. And I proved it here in our home there are times that drinking coke would easily digest of hard foods like beef meat. With this constipation and other related pain could be avoided through drinking of soft drink. But in totality the disadvantage is higher than the advantage.

Give me a Cherry Coke over fruit juice any day. Every once in a while I'll grab some grape or apple juice, or water when I really need it, but most of the time I drink soft drinks.Hey, if I die drinking one of these drinks, at least I'll die happy. =D

all soft drinks all soda is not safe or not good for our health but not bad either it depends to the amount we drink. doctors even advice those diabetic to have a zip with it as an alternatives for medicine just in case they're having an attack and if theres no medicine around. but then too much is not good either its a soda or not.
