Drinking lots of carbonated water will quickly age

The habit of drinking carbonated drinks will age you faster than your age, American scientists warn. Minerals in carbonated water are phosphates that are also added to processed meats, cakes and breads.

Related to many diseases

Research shows that phosphates that are added to carbonated beverages to enhance flavor can accelerate aging, which will cause skin and muscle to shrink and also damage the heart and kidneys.

Although experts performed the test on mice, researchers at Harvard University believe that the above shows the potential consequences of this high dose accumulation.

Researcher Gerald Weismann said: 'Soda is a popular beverage and millions of people around the world regularly use it and accompany it with phosphorus. And this study shows that phosphorus balance affects aging and so don't overdo it. '

This is not the first study to show an increased concern for the safety of the favorite carbonated cola and juice with consumption of up to billions of bottles per day.

Crunchy bones, pancreatic cancer, muscle weakness and paralysis associated with carbonated beverages. With 2 cans per week is enough to increase this risk.

Valuable research on people

In the latest study, TS. M.Shawkat Razzaque, Harvard Dental School studied the effects of phosphates on three groups of mice.

In the first group, the klotho gene is altered, leading them to absorb higher amounts of phosphate. They live 8-15 weeks and suffer from aging-related diseases.

The second group has no gene klotho and the result is normal phosphate. They live for 20 weeks.

The third group is a descendant of the second group but eats a lot of phosphate-containing food. All of them live only 15 weeks, like the first group.

Scientists believe the results suggest that a diet high in phosphates causes negative and toxic effects.

They warn that this substance can cause aging of the skin and muscles and may 'stimulate' kidney and heart disorders.

'People need a healthy diet and balanced diet of phosphorus in order to have a healthy life and longevity,' the researchers concluded.

As soon as the latest study was published, drinking water manufacturers questioned this latest research and pointed out that the study did not have a clear view of carbonated beverages. And according to Richard Laming, the British Carbonated Drink Association, 'Only 3% of phosphorus comes from a carbonated diet.'

Earlier this year, a study in the United States found that drinking 2 servings of carbonated water for a week or more would double the risk of pancreatic cancer.
