Soft drinks and fruit juices
Calorie containing drinks are one of the biggest contributors to climbing obesity rates in the Western world. In fact, some people have created entire diets based upon one single principle – excluding soft drinks. But it’s not just pop that’s the problem.
The majority of fruit based drinks are loaded with sugar. It’s wise to avoid soft drinks altogether and stick to water, tea, coffee.
If you really enjoy orange juice for example, just have one glass in the morning with your breakfast, or better still eat a whole orange instead for the added fibre and vitamin C.
Eat to train,
Nicola.
