Yes, sodas can be harmful.

Soft Drinks

But here’s a reason why they are harmful that you may not have heard before.

The Hidden Dangers of Soft Drinks

If you’ve noticed a disturbing trend in young boys today then you are not alone. There are many things contributing to the emasculation of young men.

A young man’s motivation to succeed is about as low as his actual testosterone levels these days.

According to Dr. Leonard Sax, one of the five factors he sites for this phenomenon in his latest book, Boys Adrift, is a type of chemical poisoning found in plastic bottles. Soda bottles and drinking water bottles are the prime culprits according to Dr. Sax.

Now we’ve all had that slight burning sensation in our mouths and throats when bottled water is left out too long; especially in the heat. So we might consider drinking our water and soda out of glass bottles instead.
