Royal Crown Cola Diet

   / Royal Crown Cola Diet #23  
Gale, I've been drinking diet drinks ever since they were sweetened with saccharin. Remember when the restaurants used to have a bottle of liquid saccharin sitting on the table for tea? Diet Coke is generally my favorite, but I also like diet Dr. Pepper, diet root beer, diet ginger ale, diet. . . well, you get my drift. I don't even like the taste of sugar sweetened beverages anymore. I think my two favorite unsweetened beverages are tonic water and plain soda water (seltzer). Tonic water and a lemon slice makes an excellent summer drink, wet, bitter, and very thirst quenching. I've been on a diet all my life and my recommendation is that you increase your intake of vegetables dramatically and cut out all the meat you can. I'm not talking about mashed or fried potatoes when I say veggies. I mean beans, soups, and veggies that don't have a lot of butter or creme sauces on them. Try to cut out bread also. Shoot for 1000 calories a day and work downwards toward 850. You'll drop weight like crazy.

Heave up two 40 lb bags of deer corn on each shoulder. That's what it's like to be 80 lb overweight.:eek:

if you have arthritis.. stop the cola.. look into some things like cinnamon too. natural anti inflamatory. just don't overdo it on regular store bought cin. only 2grams max a day.. as it can cause liver toxcicity to a small degree. On the other hand.. if you get the tru ceylon/zelon cinnamon.. it is much, much, much easier on the liver..

omega oils can help with inflamation. anything that helps with circulation ( general heart and vein health ) will be good.. keeps fluids drained. horse chestnut.. astraxanthan..etc..

I use ceylon cinnamon - helps. I give it to my arthritic horse (knee) and it keeps her going.

x2 on the cinnamon. I use it in my coffee every day. Boosts metabolism and helps with arthritis.

I try to limit sodas to one can per week.

Pancreatic Cancer Linked to Sodas?

rekees4300 that was a very good link you posted.

This doctor from TX ready spells out how cancer and other conditions come about from consuming too many carbs over a period of time. She is easy to understand to my ears but she may be from the south too. :)

I did not know high carbs are required for cancer to develop and spread or how dangerous low fat diets are to living long and without dementia.

Some where over the last month my craving for Royal Crown Cola when away and I realized I had forgot to grab a good swig of RC for about two weeks. She covered why. We crave carbs because we are eating too many. When we stop over eating carbs over time. Be best I understand over eating carbs is the main cause of type II diabetics.

If anyone knows of anyone dealing with cancer, heart attacks, etc I strongly suggest you watch this doctor's five short youtube clips on the causes and what/when we eat protects/puts us at risk for deadly health conditions. She is not marketing any products but gets some common sense info without so much medical terminology.

Well the craving for RC Cola, Pepsi, etc has left as well as for cakes, pies and other items with added sugar. I do eat fruit that naturally contains sugar. Have read if you crave carbs that is because you are eating too many. Leaving off processed foods has helped my pain level drop off the radar to the point it does not define my life.

The plus side is 20 pounds of the 75 I am going to loose before spring are gone and body/mind strength and stamina is several times greater.

Getting rid of the sodas, regular or diet, makes a HUGE difference in cravings and weight. Congrats on the first 20! Good luck for the rest of it too!
