Sodas are very popular drinks which people of all ages enjoy. However, on the long run these beverages can cause serious health issues that can put your life in danger. Your bones are also victims of drinking soda because it makes them weaker and more fragile thus prone to fractures. This is what happens after one hour of drinking just one can of soda:
First 10 minutes
A can of carbonated drink contains about 10 tablespoons of sugar, which is more than the recommended daily allowance. The body is able to take it all at once due to the phosphoric acid in the drink which cuts the flavor down and doesn’t make you vomit.
After 20 minutes
Due to the increase in glucose and insulin, the sugar gets transformed to fat in the liver.
After 40 minutes
The caffeine from the drink is now fully absorbed in the body. It immediately increases the blood flow and makes the liver release sugar into the bloodstream. At the same time, the brain starts blocking the adenosine receptors, effectively preventing you from feeling tired.
After 45 minutes
After 45 minutes, there’s an increased secretion of dopamine in the body which makes you feel better. According to scientists, this effect is similar to that of heroin.
After 50 minutes
After 1 hour
This is when caffeine’s diuretic properties kick in and you’re feeling the urge to urinate. This will expel all the bonded magnesium, calcium and zinc through the urine.
After more than an hour
As the effects of the drink stop, you’re getting a sugar crash. You may become irritable and sluggish and you have urinated the essential nutrients from your tissues and bones. The risk of diabetes is now significantly increased.
