Avoiding Fat After Drinking Soda

News Health Articles - Avoiding Fat After Drinking Soda. The habit of drinking soft drinks as a friend to relax, while watching TV or just sitting around can cause obesity. Calories contained in a can of soda is enough to run without stopping for one hour.

The average can of soda contains 250 calories. This is equivalent to 10 percent of calories each day. This is roughly equal to the need to run without interruption for a full hour. Number of calories for quick fat makes a person very easily.



Unfortunately, the number of calories on the packaging of soft drinks only listed numbers. So that consumers are less aware of how big that number. The story would be different if the number of calories compared to a specific activity such as running without stopping for one hour.

If the amount of calories just written in the form of numbers, consumers tend to be less aware of the dangers behind the calorie content in soft drinks. Consumers tend to be more aware if it is written with other equivalent activities. This was revealed by Dr Sarah Bleich from John Hopkins University.

She conducted experiments on a number of students who like to drink soft drinks.
This was done to prove his opinion. Each participant gets a can of soda with 3 different packaging. This distinction is based on the way include the amount of calories provided to the participants.

Type of packaging is made, namely:

1. The first is the standard packaging packaging plant, which only lists the number of calories that an average of 250 calories.
2. Packaging that lists calories equal to 10 percent of calories each day.
3. Packaging that lists the calorie equivalent of running non-stop activity for 1 hour.

The result, the habit of drinking soda is reduced 40 percent. This occurs when participants have packaging that lists the caloric equivalent of 10 percent of calories each day. More remarkable when it is mentioned that this type of activity equivalent to calorie content, the habit of drinking soda declined by 50 percent. It's Amazing, isn't it?
