In reply to Martha.

It’s important to consider that many, if not most,
sparkling waters have high levels of heavy metals
in them. Do some research to find which ones are
low in heavy metals.

This is a great article but what about stevia?..We regularly drink zevia cola with no carbs no calories and no standard sugars..Its helped me in my weightloss goals as well..Just about every article we have read has stated it as one of the best and safest alternatives to regular and diet soda..My question is this-Does it disrupt insulin and if so is this bad or good?Ive read mixed articles.One says it does and others say it dont.Any added info would be appreciated.

Kombucha is easily made from fermented tea and sugar but most of the sugar is consumed by the fermentation. It gives me a lift and in three days, you can make several bottles of it.

Website offers ‘exclusive free e-books’. I clicked one one and was informed that since it was ‘sensed’ I was not in the US that I could not access the book but was offered a special price. My iPad is registered in the US. I am only out of the country for a few days. – actually about 15 miles inside the Canadian border. Why is this valuable information not available? If the ‘powers that be’ can determine I am out of the country, certainly they have the capability to determine that the iPad is registered and bought in the US. Strange.

I used to drink a lot of soda. I went and had a physical, and the doctor told me I was pre-diabetic. I now have no soda, and my doctor tells me I have the blood of a teenager! By the way, I’m 54, and take zero prescriptions.

yup, great article, will share.
By the way, if it pulls magnesium out of the body that could help explain the huge incidences of magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is an electrolyte crucial for the proper working of electrical signals of your heart, plus crucial for so much more in your body, so would also be bound to be another factor in heart disease. i know of people who are able to come off their heart meds when they supplement with magnesium. A simple way to test if you are deficient is to spray liquid magnesium on your back, and if it stings you are deficient. We use holland 7 barrett one that is scented with bergamot oil.

Any thoughts about sparkling water? Is there anything detrimental about the carbonation? it is very thirst quenching and makes me feel I am drinking something special.

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 1985 at which time I gave up soda and started drinking water, fruit juice and eating salads with raw veggies. It took 2 years, but I got over Fibromyalgia.
