A member asked:
Why should you avoid carbonated beverages? does this include carbonated water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Two biggest reasons are to 1) avoid tooth decay from the carbonic acid (as c02 dissociates into beverage), and 2) avoid empty calories, if you beverages are sugar-sweetened (other than the carbonated water, if plain soda-water). Can talk w/your dentist or regular dr, depending on which concern greater.
