Can sugar-free cola cause cancer? Seven Truths about Coke

Coke and dinner are one of the necessary drinks.

Often wandering in the healthy people’s various punitive voices, finally derived a so-called zero calorie sugar-free cola.

However, is sugar-free health? Today, Dr. Clove will talk about this topic.

Sugar-free cola is healthier than ordinary cola?

To be honest, sweet drinks (including cola) are really notorious in the nutrition world.

If you have to choose a better one among them, then sugar-free cola really needs to be healthier, after all, every can is short of tens of grams of sugar.

If you are used to drinking Coke every day, it will be better to change to sugar-free one.

As for the sugar-free and sweet taste, this is due to the non-calorie sweetener.

Taste receptors exist on our tongues, which can sense sweet, sour, bitter, salty and fresh tastes.

Sweeteners can bind to sweet receptors and then send signals to the brain at once, making the brain feel [well, that’s the smell.]

There are two main sweeteners used in sugar-free cola: acesulfame and aspartame, both of which are zero-calorie varieties.

Isn’t zero calorie helpful to lose weight?

Yes, no.

Unless you used to drink a can of ordinary Coke every day, it is really effective to switch to sugar-free Coke and keep other diets unchanged.

However, some researchers believe that sweeteners may affect human metabolism, intestinal flora and appetite, but will make people eat more and become fatter.

As for weight loss, there are too many factors that affect it. You cannot judge it by one kind of food alone. If you eat big fish and big meat and drink sugar-free cola, you will definitely not lose weight.

Can drinking too much sugar-free cola cause cancer?

The most controversial sweetener in sugar-free cola is aspartame because it is synthetic and decomposes methanol in the body.

As an old saying goes, all acts of talking about toxicity without dosage are hooligans.

Aspartame is 200 times sweeter than sucrose, so a can of sugar-free cola needs only a little aspartame to achieve the ideal taste.

According to the limit standard in the United States, adult men have to drink 20 bottles a day to reach the limit, which the average person cannot do.

The point is, there is no definite research to prove that aspartame can cause cancer, nor does acesulfame.

However, special groups should be cautious about aspartame:

    Patients with phenylketonuria cannot eat foods containing aspartame as sweetener. Discomfort symptoms after drinking may be aspartame intolerance.

Legend has it that Coke can kill sperm?

Yes, if you soak your sperm in cola

As for drinking, studies have proved that it has little effect.

If there is such a strong effect, with the consumption of cola, human beings would have…

Coke + monosodium glutamate = aphrodisiac?

It doesn’t work.

The analysis and research of sugar, phosphoric acid, sweetener and sodium glutamate in monosodium glutamate in cola have not found the so-called aphrodisiac effect, and there will be no special chemical reaction between cola and monosodium glutamate.

So, don’t count on it.

What’s more, FDA has stated that there is no safe and effective over-the-counter aphrodisiac.

If this statement is true, for those who eat out and drink cola, the picture is quite beautiful.

What are the hazards of drinking cola for a long time?

1. Ordinary Coke

A large amount of sugar (free sugar) will not only make you fat, but also affect your skin and take away your beautiful appearance.

In addition, it will also promote the occurrence of fatty liver, hypertension, gout and other diseases, damaging the health of teeth and bones.

Step 2: Sugar-free Coke

Although there is a lot less sugar than ordinary cola, it is slightly healthier.

However, phosphoric acid, carbonic acid and other components in cola will still affect the absorption of calcium and have certain corrosive effect on teeth.

As for the effects of sweeteners on metabolism and intestinal flora, it is not clear at present and more research is needed.

But if you are really worried about health problems, the best choice is plain boiled water.
