you might be developing GOUT.
You do not want gout.
Look into it
I establish a quick article about this. Couldn’t find the one I remember reading that said soda might reduce your bodies’ skill to absorb calcium.
Soda deffinately adds to pains of the joints. It deteriates bones and dehydrates you making the joints stick rather than glide, plus I reckon that carbonization does something too. You didn’t say how long you’ve been drinking soda though so it’s hard to say if it’s possible that it’s done hurt or not.
Oh oh. I have been drinking way to much Dr. Pepper for about 2 years now, and the tops of my feet are always painful. I tried stopping and cut down to one a day and it has been a modest better too.
Phosphoric acid (in a lot of sodas) binds with calcium as it is expelled from the body. So, for each molecule of phosphoric acid expelled it takes a molecule of calcium with it.
I had a devastating knee injury and had been an avid Pepsi drinker. After reading an article about this I tried it and was shocked at the reduction in pain. So, I went back to drinking them again to see if it was all in my head. Sadly, it was not. I avoid any drink (some flavored water too) that contains phosphoric acid and am much better off.
Sorry!
YES! Each time I drink pop my left knee swells up and it hurts to bed it and my fingers and toes crack. A lot! And I am only 14 so not matter how ancient you are it happens. I don’t know why or how but it does.
The doctor will use a huge needle to suck out fluid and look for crystals which gout is and that is how they test for it. Thecrystals can be hard to find, so it may take numerous tries. After that, your place on medication for life, but it’s worth it casue the puffiness and pain never comes back. The diet will not control the gout. Yes, it’s a lethal disease.
