Coke-Free.

Not really. But our household tremendously reduce the consumption of soda most specifically coca cola. My husband has been a coke drinker ever since we met so it is just natural to have a household of coke drinker. Two weeks ago, after the nth time of different doctors telling my husband to stop his coke, beer and spicy chili pepper intake, he finally listened. Two Saturdays ago, my hubby throw away the small chili pepper he has in stock at our ref. From that moment on, no chili pepper was eaten by him. The coke intake which can be 1 bottle of 1.5L a day drop to 1 bottle of 1.5L a week and now none for the past to weeks. His beer intakes, none so far from two weeks. I already stopped drinking coke more than a year ago and I am happy that I can maintain that. Anything you need to give for health reason?

When there is a health issue then you have no choice but to stop intake of anything that is bad for you.

I think Coca Cola is a very unhealthy drink but many seem addicted to it. What is unhealthy about chilli pepper? I'm just wondering.

Coke is really addicting and has a lot sugar. For the chili pepper, he eats the small very hot ones, three pieces every meal. He has hyper acidity

I was a coke drinker too. I can consume 1L in one day or 500ML in one sitting. Glad that you have reduced your intake and your household to be healthy.

Too much soda drinks could affect teeth, too much sugar in the soft drinks could cause some other problems like diabetic, weight, etc. (I quit having soft drinks for a long time, then recently, I have decided to have a few sips every now and then whenever I have heartburns).

I like various carbonated drinks but the real fizzy drinkers in our house are our three grandchildren! Fortunately, they only visit once a week.
