Thank you so much for the info!
I was diagnosed with Crohn's at 12 but never stopped drinking soda. I was drinking around ten a day. I've had kidney stones a couple times. I recently left the rat race and started meditating and I've been cutting back super fast. I'm down to one soda a day. But today I suddenly have a dull pain in my kidneys. It's not sharp like a stone dropping into the ureter, and it could be muscles as it hit while driving for an hour... but I'm still worried.
Are there dangers related to stopping TOO fast?

I’m 18 currently and have been drinking soda for almost all my life.This past year I had my first kidney stone at only 17 and have been looking to quit for years.I drink anywhere from 1 to 6-7 even 8 soda cans a day STILL!I tried to substitute with water but I really enjoy soda when I eat to wash my food down and water isn’t the same, I need help any comments are appreciated

I agree than Coffee if drank moderately (according to age, weight, health status, genetic factors) is better for you than Soda.(An addiction i admit i have but determined to quit)In fact you can buy organic Coffee with natrual caffeine that has health benefits.But any Coffee has some health benefits but there's a threshold when it's drank too much it puts stress on the body.That threshold might not be the same for everyone but everybody has a thresh hold somewhere. Good video!

I wish water was as addictive! I hate that my parents let me drink this crap as a child. I'm addicted now. I want to quit. I'm going to try caffeinated water and fruit. Wish me luck

this guy makes his living as a surgeon. the fact y'all are heckling him shows nothing. trolls.... hey good video. I'm trying myself to cut back myself I'm at a 12 pack of Mt.dew a day. I'm 6'4" at 125 lbs. so I don't know that overweight is the only hazard in them. trying to gain weight. but I think the sodas are holding that up. dr.matthews think there's anything to that?

[DabXD]

I just came here to see how everyone else is doing lol, i used to be addicted to soda drinking 2-4 a day but as of now im officially 2 months off soda 😎

[chelseybelcher]

I’m gonna try and start drinking carbonated water starting now cause I’m 15 and should better myself, plus it will make my skin way better and for my teeth

Day 2 with no pop. I am tired and have a headache. I am going to this once and for all. One day at a time.

You’re wrong about adding sugar to coffee is equal to soda. There is 39 grams of sugar in 12 oz of Coke with only 4 grams in a teaspoon of sugar(huge difference!). I’ve quit drinking 64 to 128 oz of energy drinks a day... replaced it with 2-3 cups of coffee a day with 1-2 teaspoons of sugar added. Want me to do the math? I was having 312 grams of sugar a day on average vs 10 grams a day now with coffee.
