I've noticed my brother-in-law drinking soda the whole day and it bugs me. Sodas are like sugar, flavoring and carbonated water.. Whenever i see him finish a whole bottle, i imagine him drinking at least 3 cups of sugar!! As for me, i only drink water.. for juices and sodas, i drink them at a minimal level, like 2-3 times a month?

I used to be a soda drinker. I can finish 2 liters of it for the whole day that is before I have problems with my urine. Now, I am on the water therapy and I am not drinking soda as much as possible. I am making sure I have water with me wherever I go and if I am dining out, instead of ordering soda, I would just buy iced tea since it is healthier.

if your urine is concentrated, then water is the best drink for you:) i think iced tea has a little bit less sugar than soda but nonetheless, i think you should ask your doctor if it's safe to drink it.. better safe than sorry

I drink fruit juice with every meal and it can be grapefruit juice or cranberry juice. When I go to my Spanish course I drink fair trade orange juice. During the day I like to drink water because it is a delicious and healthy choice. I lemonade sometimes but not very often because it contains lots of sugar. Carbonated drinks make me feel really full and then I don't wish to eat.

those are healthy drinks to start the day, i'm not much of a juice person because i've noticed that most juices are prepacked and are also full of sugar..

I've read that it's healthy to drink at least 8 glasses of water everyday, drinking juices, coffee, software drinks cannot substitute the plain water. I like to drink plain water too. I drink plenty of water everyday. I do drink coffee, tea and milk too. But after I've drunk these drinks, I need to drink a glass of water.

I never drink sodas. I might have had about 6 orange or lemon sodas in my life. That was only when there was no water, it was hot, and I was in danger of becoming severely dehydrated. I forced them down like bad tasting medicine. I hate them. As a kid my parents were worried once that I would die because there was no water anywhere for hours, and I wouldn't drink a soda. Cola was a no go, I've never had a cola and never will. YUCK. I hate cola. I like orange juice, but hated and still hate sweet fizzy things. I drink a lot of water. I love water. I also drink tea and coffee. I know too much coffee is bad, but it's my one vice. I don't put milk or sugar in it. I like my coffee pure. I even buy the beans and roast them every week because there is no good coffee in the store and we don't have any specialty coffee shops in my town.
