Coca Cola can kill

well has any of us given up coke or reduced the intake much???

I've been drinking more of it in the past year, but I don't often have the full sugar one. I would say that the most I drink a day is a litre and a half. Saying that, I've recently developed a love for lemonade and lime cordial, so it's going down.

fair play Kim, i need to sort out my intake, i would drink 2 litres in 12 hours when im working on shift, need to find something to replace it with lol

Try the Zero one - I was unsure at first but there really is very little difference, except less sugar content.

I read on the BBC website recently that drinking one or more sugary soft drinks a day is linked to an increased risk of diabetes. I've given up drinking them altogether after reading that, even though I didn't drink as many as one a day. I now usually only drink water or tea, with an occasional orange juice and soda water if I want something sweet.

Yes, they are. Thanks for the correction, I've altered my post now

Here's the link about sugary soft drinks and diabetes if anyone is interested in reading it: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-22280297

Start by replacing one bottle/can with a bottle of water and then 2 and so on... eventually you won't even miss the fizzy drinks
