In this article Compiled by MSN Health & Fitness editors, read about dangers of soft drinks:

The average American drinks 18 ounces, or two full glasses, of soft drinks a day. In fact, according to one study, soda and other sugar-sweetened drinks have become the largest source of calories in the American diet, replacing white bread. The proliferation of soda tells the story: hundreds of different varieties are sold in the United States. While soft drinks are still king, sports drinks sales are rising on a yearly basis.

People may think they’re doing something healthy “by grabbing a bottle of Powerade instead of a can of Coke,” says Kara Gallagher, an assistant professor of exercise physiology at the University of Louisville and an adviser for Prevention. But at 10 calories per ounce, that Powerade is almost equal to a can of Coke, which has 12 per ounce.

“Unless you’re exercising vigorously, you don’t need sports drinks. They have a lot of empty calories, just like anything else,” Gallagher says.

Most people would agree that their love affair with the sweet drinks isn’t healthy, but no one would put it in the same class as a truly bad habit, such as smoking or drinking alcohol to excess, right?

Wrong. Scientists are beginning to do just that. The bulk of the research has focused on connecting the dots between consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and weight gain But there is mounting evidence that our national sugary soft drink obsession also confuses the appetite-regulating hormones in the digestive tract, attacks the bones and encourages the organ breakdown that leads to diabetes.

We all know that sodas, sweetened and artificially sweetened are unhealthy for us.

Here is a confirmation as to how changing that negative habit can reap wonderful rewards with our health:

“Addicted” to soda, Marie Francis Barry ballooned up to 247 pounds. Since she cut the cola, she’s lost weight and gained new-found confidence.

“If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself.

If you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself.

Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self transformation.”

–Lao Tzu

Washington (CNN) — The Department of Veterans Affairs is making it easier for veterans who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder to get benefits, a development President Barack Obama calls a “long overdue step.”

In his weekly address Saturday, Obama said Veterans Affairs will launch new rules for easing PTSD documentation requirements starting next week.

Current department rules require veterans to document events like firefights or bomb explosions that could have caused the disorder. Such documentation was often time-consuming and difficult, and sometimes was impossible.

Under the new rules a veteran need show only that he or she served in a war and performed a job during which events could have happened that could cause the disorder.

“… for years, many veterans with PTSD who have tried to seek benefits — veterans of today’s wars and earlier wars — have often found themselves stymied. They’ve been required to produce evidence proving that a specific event caused their PTSD. And that practice has kept the vast majority of those with PTSD who served in non-combat roles, but who still waged war, from getting the care they need,” Obama said.

Step 2: Read labels wisely.

You don’t need to spend an hour making your own marinara sauce (though the book provides a recipe using canned tomatoes, if you’re so inclined). You can also find “real” tomato sauce in the supermarket if you read labels carefully.

Those containing ingredients you can buy on your own, like tomatoes, olive oil, salt, garlic, and parmesan cheese, meet Weinstein’s criteria for a real food; those that have preservatives, like BHT, thickeners like guar gum, or artificial flavors, don’t. Ditto for store-bought breads, breakfast cereals, and pasta.

Step 1: Seek true satisfaction.

Grab that peach or strawberry, examine its color, sniff it, and take a bite. Give yourself a moment to enjoy the genuine flavors. For comparison, nibble a Starburst fruit candy or a strawberry fruit roll-up. Notice that you mainly taste sweet without a lot of complexity? That’s because fat, sugar, and salt are added to processed foods to mask the metallic taste of artificial preservatives, sweeteners, and other chemical additives, says Weinstein. He should know since he used to test recipes for packaged food companies and tinker with ingredients to get the appropriate taste and texture. Processed foods are also made to dissolve quickly in your mouth, he says, to get you to eat faster and in greater quantities—often leaving you full, but not satisfied. Now you know why that bag of Doritos disappears before you’ve really had a chance to taste them.
