Thanks for this valuable info, Virginia! I've always kept sodas away from my kids as much as possible, letting them have one as a "treat," like at a friend's birthday party or a dinner out. I've known how they impact your body's ability to process sugar and how bad they are for your teeth. I never buy sodas unless I'm having friends over and want to offer beverage choices. Interestingly, I've always had problems digesting carbonated drinks, but didn't realize until I just now read your post that they're so high in acidity. This totally makes sense since I have GERD. I guess my body was telling me that soda's bad.....
I'm going to share your post on a moms' web site so they can be better educated when it comes to their kids and sodas.
