What You drink When You Get Thirsty?




Soft drinks or water?

I have created a pool and at the end i am pretty sure that coke will be the first choice.Because when you drink you feel fresh and you are addicted to soft drinks.Cinema can not be watched without popcorn-coke, french fries can not be eaten without coke,even burgers can not be without coke.

Do you know exactly what you drink?

I have read some articles like, what happens to your body if you drink a coke right now.They explain every minute and you will understand now that it is a real poison.
The most interesting part is, drinking too much coke will dissolve teeths and bones.Oh my god, i`m 26 and at the age of 30, human body stops building bones.

Firstly i will summarize the effects of the coke to our body after i will give a fresh lemonade recipe.

§                       In The First 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake.) You don’t immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.
§                       20 minutes: Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. (There’s plenty of that at this particular moment)
§                       40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, as a response your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked preventing drowsiness.
§                       45 minutes: Your body ups your dopamine production stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. This is physically the same way heroin works, by the way.
§                       60 minutes: The phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in your lower intestine, providing a further boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners also increasing the urinary excretion of calcium.
§                       60 Minutes: The caffeine’s diuretic properties come into play. (It makes you have to pee.) It is now assured that you’ll evacuate the bonded calcium, magnesium and zinc that was headed to your bones as well as sodium, electrolyte and water.
§                       60 minutes: As the rave inside of you dies down you’ll start to have a sugar crash. You may become irritable and/or sluggish. You’ve also now, literally, pissed away all the water that was in the Coke. But not before infusing it with valuable nutrients your body could have used for things like even having theability to hydrate your system or build strong bones and teeth.
§                        
This is the destruction of a single coke can.This is for every soft drink actually.

Especially in super markets they have a specific part only for fresh juices.After fitness, while driving all the way to home we are having our strawberry and avocado juice.It makes you also feel full.I`m happy that i do not feel so hungry after sports.Also do not forget to read the ingredients, some fresh juices include sugar as i will not prefer.

Also in restaurants here in Dubai you will a wide selection of cocktails.Even more than the soft drinks.

So, we have the choice to continue drinking soft drinks or to choose to drink fresh juices.


Today i have made a fresh lemonade juice.

Prepare fresh ripen and big lemon. Squeeze juice and collect some zest. In large bowl boil some water and add sugar, lemon juice and zest. Stir until sugar dissolves. Store it in refrigerator to make it cool. You can use this syrup with water in 50-50% proportion. You can add ice and mint to make it more refreshing.

Bonne Apetit..
