Guest guest Posted July 14, 2000 Report Share Posted July 14, 2000 , Yes, it is true that one average soda pop is so acid it takes 20-30 glasses of neutral water to balance the Ph. But, it doesn't take that much alkaline water to do so. If J. Fox is/was addicted to diet softdrinks, then I have to wonder about the aspartate & glutamate from nutrasweet, because they are neurotransmitters, needing no chemical change to act as such. Could this have played a role in his Parkinsonism? I would imagine so! jim jackson wrote: > > > Fox has also been a Diet Pepsi spokesman and > > informants say he is addicted drinking many a day. > > > > I have heard that the phosphoric acid does a number on calcium and > magnesium, and that it takes a whole bunch of glasses of alkaline water > (like 30?) to neutralize the acid in a soft drink.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2000 Report Share Posted July 14, 2000 aspartame also has l-phenylalanine precursor to (Dopamine and Norephinenprine) and meOH, methanol. The latter is more damaging than the first. You do need at least adequate precursors to build neurortransmitters. Methanol along with the mercury in amalgams is enough to casue this and other problems like MS, ALS, etc. |, | |Yes, it is true that one average soda pop is so acid it takes |20-30 glasses of neutral water to balance the Ph.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I know there are people who drink soft drinks but Dr. Aceves basically tells you not to do this. I figure if I trust him to do my surgery, I will follow his rules. BUT, that is just me...others may think differently. It is my understanding that the effervescence in carbonation can potentially cause problems with your band. I don't know about you but I don't have the money to pay for a new band so I'm gonna take care of the one I have! Perhaps Nina can give us a quick reminder of what the "rule" about carbonated beverages is.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Dr. A says no pop but my fill dr said after 6 months you can have pop. But they also said to let it go flat first- what is the point? LOL. I have chosen not to drink pop b/c it is addicting to me and I was drinking 7-8 cans a day and I feel better drinking the water. It has been 7 months since I have had a drop of pop. Sometimes when we go out to eat and I see my husband with his big cup of Coke and crushed ice I want it but other then that I dont even think about it. > > i was under the assumtion that once banded you are done with soft > drinks for life. > i was talking to a friend who was just banded by another doctor and she > said her paperwork from her doc says only for 6 months... > > whats dr a's rule on this? > > dawn m > dob 2/3/07 > 280/250/150 > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
