Death to Athlete's

I strongly believe that soda should be banned all together. It is honestly a slow death for continuous drinkers. No good comes out of guzzling down a soda. If you drink just two soda's a week then you increase your risk of pancreatic cancer by 86%. Soda is just empty calories, which cannot be used in the body so it generally gets stored as fat. I use to drink soda a lot when I was younger and I was actually pretty big for about three years. I have played sports my entire life so I was always in shape, but when I entered high school things changed dramatically for me. When conditioning one day for soccer I realized that even though I was in decent shape, I was nothing compared to the rest of the team. After the hardest run of my life, the coach had a talk to us about diet. He told us that to get the most out of our hard work we had to eat right. He said that "soda is death to athlete's" these words stuck to me like glue and I still have not forgotten them. Since that day I have not drank soda once, and I try to eat a clean as I can. My body has changed for the better and I feel so much better than I did all those years ago when I drank soda. I don't understand why you would drink something so cynical. Soda is linked to an increased risk of stroke and other heart related illness's. So why would you ever do that to yourself.
