If you want to lose body fat, a regular soda is not a good idea when following a healthy weight loss diet, as it has a high sugar-calorie-content. In general, calorie-controlled diets recommend a low intake of regular soda-type drinks and a high intake of water. Remember, in addition to energy content, nutrition is also important, as a nutritious diet helps the body to burn calories faster and maintains a healthy metabolism. Therefore as well as calorie-counting, check food labels for nutritional value. Nutritional and energy values provided on most of the above food pages include: vitamins, minerals, folate and dietary fiber, as well as protein and carbs. Understanding diet nutrition makes calorie control and weight management easier and helps you to follow a healthy eating plan. See also Nutrition in Soft Drinks
Calorie savings tip: If you are counting calories because you are on a weight loss diet plan, the best way to lower energy intake is to drink water or diluted fruit juices instead of regular sodas, or other high-sugar beverages. Also, remember that physical exercise workouts help to increase energy-expenditure and thus allow you to drink higher-calorie soft drinks with less risk of developing a weight problem.
