In addition, as nutrition experts explain, strong coffee in moderate amounts reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, depression and even cancer.
Mark Hyman, MD, an American doctor, recommends not drinking diet sodas to replace regular sodas, as they too are harmful to the body, even though they contain less sugar.
"Diet drinks have artificial sweeteners that can actually slow metabolism and negatively affect the gut microbiome," explains the expert, he is quoted by FoodRU.
The best alternative to soda is one cup of strong coffee a day, but without sugar and cream. Although you can drink 3-4 cups.
But nutritionist Tory Armul advises to replace soda with fruit water, but not purchased. It can be prepared by yourself.
"During the day it is important to maintain water balance, but many people do not like to drink plain water. Add oranges, kiwi, a few slices of cucumber, berries to it," Armul explained.
An alternative refreshing and tonic drink in the heat can be unsweetened iced tea - either green or black. You can make the tea a little sweeter by using artificial sweetener or stevia.
