More Important Than the Foods: High Calorie Soft Drinks & Juices Fuel The Obesity Epidemic
In a striking study, released on April 2, 2009 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition researchers from five university centers found that adults can lose more weight cutting out a few sugary drinks than reducing their food. Dr Benjamin Caballero, the senior author of the study from Johns Hopkins University, noted “both liquid and solid calories were associated with weight loss, but only liquid calorie intake was associated with significant weight reduction during the 6 and 18 month follow-up." This suggests that the participants were able to continue their weight loss beyond the study period simply because they did not return to the high sugar beverages.
How sugary drinks contribute so much to weight gain and how to stop them if you
are a soda "addict" follows:
This did not apply to solid foods or other drinks like milk. Of the seven types of beverages studied only sugar sweetened beverages: regular soft drinks, fruit drinks, fruit punch or high calorie beverages sweetened with sugar were associated directly with weight loss.
The Sugary Facts:
Sugary beverages contribute an average of 8% to 9% of total calories for children and adults. People in the USA consume about 16% of their daily calories from sugars that are added to all foods. About 47% of those sugars are from sodas and other sugar-sweetened beverages, such as juice drinks and iced tea. On average, people increased their calories from sodas and other sugary drinks by 83 calories a day from 1977 to 2001 as reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
About 52 calories were from carbonated non-diet sodas. A 12-ounce soda has 150 calories and 40-50 grams of sugars in high-fructose corn syrup, equal to 10 teaspoons of sugar. Source: The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition
How do sugary drinks contribute so much to weight gain?
Sugar-sweetened soft drinks contain 140-150 calories per 12-oz serving. If normal dietary intake decreased by an equivalent amount of calories per serving, then weight change would not be expected. However, it does not, almost universally the drinks become extra calories. Some studies have shown that if one were to take the same amount of sugar in the from of jelly beans, there was no added calories because food was reduced in proportion.
Satiety Factor:
Sugar in drinks does not invoke the same satiety as solid food. Numerous studies have linked more satiety to solid or semi solid foods than water alone. Dr Barbara Rolls at Penn State University has done research in this area. She found much more satiety in soups containing protein and vegetables than to an equal amount of broth.
Appetite stimulation
Rapidly changing blood sugar are the result of the sugar in these beverages quickly being absorbed through the stomach into the blood stream. A rapidly rising then falling blood sugar is a well-known appetite stimulant.
The consumption of milk
As sugar sweetened beverages increase, milk consumption has decreased. Energy and nutrients from
low fat milk far exceeds that from soft drinks.
Finally, Artificially sweetened soft drinks are being accepted by the obesity research groups:
The fact that the some of the foremost obesity researchers in this country have finally given up their resistance to artificial sweeteners signifies a change in thinking.They recognize what many physicians treating obese patients have known for years-the dangers of sugary drinks, especially soft drinks far exceed any possible untoward effects of artificial sweeteners. Of course, water is the best choice, but the majority of coke/pepsi drinkers will not change to water, not matter what you tell them. Switching to coke zero, or from regular sprint to sprite zero is an acceptable choice, a least for now.
Water is so boring, but call it a “vitamin water” make it in beautiful pastel colors and call it “good for you” and “healthy,” add as much sugar as in a Coke® and a whole lot of caffeine and you have a champion. The problem is most people have more vitamins than they need, after all the average American diet supplies the recommended dietary allowance of vitamins and minerals.
Drinking a single bottle of Gatorade® adds 12 lb. and 2 inches to your waist over a year. How were we fooled into thinking a bottle of sugar water and a few minerals were good for us? In this 2nd part of a 3 part series on drinks loaded with sugar water, Gatorade is revealed as having the same sugar as a Coke, quickly turning to fat around our bellies and making us hungry. For the non athlete--Gatorade is Disaster.
Sports Drinks, vitamin waters, energy drinks, exotic fruit or plant drinks have become very popular with over 60 different brands available. Last year Americans spent a billion dollars on such products. But what do these drinks do? Do they really make you healthy or provide vitamins and minerals that you really need? The answer is simple, unless you are ill, working hard in hot weather or are an athlete they are absolutely of NO BENEFIT, and in fact they will make you fat. Regular soda and gatorade have the same calories.
How Gatorade Started the Whole Thing
Researchers at the University of Florida in 1965 used the school's football team to test a special beverage they had developed to combat dehydration. The players liked the drink, which they named "Gatorade®" after the University's mascot. After the Gators defeated Georgia Tech 27--12 in the 1967 Orange Bowl, the losing coach declared to a reporter: "We did not have Gatorade®. That made the difference." And that was the beginning of the myth that has led to lbs and lbs. of weight gain for sedentary individuals
Sports Drinks are for Athletes NOT Couch Potatoes
Sports drinks are for re-hydration and to replace minerals and sugar lost during high intense or long-duration exercise - especially if in a hot environment. The three words are: intense, duration and hot. If you are doing light exercise or doing nothing at all (couch-warming) - then Gatorade® is a big waste of money and is full of calories and sugar. Containing 150 calories and 42 grams of sugar,( the same as a can of Coca Cola®) will easily “cancel” out 30 minutes of walking. For most typical workouts water is perfectly adequate
In addition vitamins E, A, D and K do not dissolve in water and can only be absorbed with a meal containing fat. So what’s the value of putting them into a bottle of water? To taste good, 32 grams of sugar– the same as a can of Coca Cola® - is added. One of the issues is fooling yourself into thinking that drinking 32 grams of sugar is “healthy.”
What is actually in or not in a 125 calorie bottle of Vitamin water besides the sugar?
Sodium, protein and fat are zero, potassium: 150 mg, Vitamins: Vitamin C: 40%, Vitamin B3: 20%, Vitamin B6: 20%, Vitamin B12: 20%, Vitamin B5: 20,Caffeine: 70-200 mg, trace amounts of Amino acids(L.- Carnitine and Taurine-- natural product produced by body)., Guarana (stimulant from a plant,) Ginseng(herb), Ginko Biloba (from a tree), and antioxidants.
A cup of coffee has 120 mg, and can of coke has 41 mg of caffeine. Caffeine produces alertness, at the same time it may cause dehydration, heart rate and blood pressure elevation as well as insomnia, headaches and anxiety. A lot of people experience significant side effects above 200mg which is about 2 cups of coffee or 4 cokes.
The amino acids L-Carnitine and Taurine are natural products made in the body. There is no need to add extra amounts, and there is NO proof they have any weight loss benefit.The plant products Guarana, Ginko Biloba and Ginseng have NO proven medical benefits.
The same vitamins and minerals can be found in a tablet of any over the counter multi-vitamin tablet without all the sugar.
The issue again like the sports drinks is not to be fooled by the "healthy" aura that surrounds these drinks.
Gatorade started as a replacement drink for athletes has become a replacement for water adding hundreds of unnecessary calories and tens of grams of sugar.
