Why are soft drinks banned from many schools?

Empty calories: Many feel that sugary cola drinks, highly appealing to youngsters, contribute to obesity and improper dietary habits in this age group. They feel a better approach is to provide more healthy drinks and prevent temptation by banning these drinks from school situations.
