/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Based. After I stopped drinking this trash I can't possibly take a sip again, shit tastes like concentrated diabetes.

>>12629855
I still drink diet drinks though. every once in a while. I laugh at all the tards who say it will make me crave sugary shit.

They say cooking your food gives you cancer too. I stopped listening. I don't drink them because they are gross and syrupy.

I came to have a good time, not a long time

Everything causes cancer to some extent, the real question is by how much does it increase the odds of making you get it

Maybe people are the link to cancer and everything else is coincidental.

I treat sodas like cake.

You shouldn't have a slice of cake with every meal. Or even every day. It's a treat and should be consumed as such. A 64oz Coke is not a beverage, it's a large amount of calories, essentially all sugar. Marketers just made you think it should be considered as an alternative to water. May as well consider milkshake an alternative to water.

Biggest redpill in life is that stress kills you. It doesn't matter what you eat, what shitty diet you are on or if you smoke/drink alcohol. Stress is what kills you

Just look at the interviews with people over 100 on YouTube. What every one of them has in common is that they're peaceful people who enjoy life. A lot of them smoke like trains and drink like crazy, but they don't care.

And in response to the OP, there was an old guy who lived to 104 who drank two cans of Dr Pepper everyday.

>>12629961
I think 6 ounces is the perfect serving size of soda

>>12629967
This, I realized this a few years ago, healthy mind = healthy body.

>>12629967

I wish I had cancer

>>12630054
i wish you did too, just kiddin nigga. it's not that bad

Just living gives you cancer.

>>12629839
Obesity is one of the greatest contributor to cancer.

>>12629839
Not really. If you look at the study for this it's the same deal as the correlation between sugary drinks and type 2 diabetes.
Meaning *being overweight* is the real problem. Sugary drinks are only associated indirectly by the fact that you're more likely to be overweight if you drink them.

>>12629967
they're calm because they're old you moron. if you want a real red pill, then your height is the biggest factor that fucks you.

>>12629839
who /smartboi/ here?

>>12629839
Did it also examine the link between sugary drinks and lisping faggotry?

Who the fuck drinks 64oz anything with every meal

>>12629839
Everything causes cancer anon. The sun causes cancer. Who cares.

>t. wagie gymrat that will be burnt out by fifty-five

>>12629839
I'm a sous chef and smoke half a pack a day but still have one of the best palates in the kitchen because I don't drink soda or generally eat sugary shit. Yeah I know I'm killing myself, but sugar is unironically more harmful to your palate than literally eating cancer sticks. Let that sink in. Sugar IS cancer.

>>12629839
Cancer is unavoidable. Just fucking cure it science assholes, stop looking for causes and start looking for solutions.

D-do zero drinks count? They don't, right?

>>12629989
Yeah bro just buy another Jordan Peterson book and lift another weight. She's just around the corner bro. You an be happy then bro you just gotta take one more redpill and lift one more weight.

A study that has a target conclusion before any of its results is not science

they probably do.

sweetness itself, the experience of it, causes inflammation.

I don't understand how people hate drinking water.

>D-do zero drinks count?
Sugary drinks are only connected with health problems like cancers and Type 2 Diabetes because you're more likely to be overweight if you drink them.
This basically:
>>12630081
These studies aren't about sugary drinks causing these diseases. They're about overweight / obese people being a population that both consumes sugary drinks and has higher risk for these diseases.
If you're not overweight you're probably not going to have these overweight health problems.
>Indeed, sugary drinks are convincingly associated with the risk of obesity, which in turn, is recognized as a strong risk factor for many cancers.
>Increased risks were also suggested for adiposity related and obesity related cancers in recent surveys, as well as for pancreas, gallbladder, and endometrial cancers, although some other studies observed null results.
>Compared with lower consumers of sugary drinks (first quarter), higher consumers (fourth quarter)... had higher energy, carbohydrate, lipid, and sodium intakes and lower alcohol intake, compared with lower consumers.
>In line with our results, two recent prospective studies observed an increased risk of obesity-related cancers and adiposity-related cancers associated with sugary drink consumption.
>Of note, even sugary drinks with lower sugar content were associated with cancer in this study.
>This is an observational study, thus causality of the observed associations cannot be established and residual confounding cannot be entirely ruled out.

>I don't understand how people hate drinking water.
It's not about hating it, it's about preferring drinks with more substance and flavor.
Same reason most people don't decide to live off a nutritional sludge like Soylent. People like actually eating and drinking as opposed to just doing so out of necessity to stay alive.

>>12630169
That's seriously fucking deep anon

>>12629989
It's not a replacement dumb man. No one would argue that. But to argue that stress will not affect your lifespan majorly? That would be stupid.

>>12634575
>People like actually eating and drinking as opposed to just doing so out of necessity to stay alive.
You absolutely cannot compare some meal replacement soy shake to water. Water is vital for life, there is literally no substitute. You can eat many other thinks, but you literally have to drink water. kys fat fuck.

>>12631525
My job at Kroger witnessed me to many dietary horrors. One man brought twelve diet cokes every time he shopped and he was massively obese. I wouldn't be surprised if he drank at least two of those every night. Another man brought eight to ten bags of crinkle fries every other day too.

The latter I atopped seeing at some point, but the former continued to pop up up to where I quit. Both are probably dead.

>>12634619
>You absolutely cannot compare some meal replacement soy shake to water.
That soy shake was specifically made to cover what's "vital for life," so yes, it is a valid comparison.
You're asking why people don't just do the bare minimum of drinking water for hydration. That's a very similar question to "why don't people just live off the bare minimum of X nutritional sludge product."
In both cases the answer is because most people enjoy eating and drinking things of substance and flavor.
>fat fuck
I'm emaciated. Sorry I don't match your projected self-image.

>>12634638
Drinking water isn't the bare minimum, fucking fat shit. There isn't a drink that is better than water. You cannot compare water and liquids to food.

Soda water is better

>>12634638
I think you misunderstand. Every part of a drink that isn't water is technically food. Water has no calories, we do not need it for any caloric requirement, but because we need water itself. Every drink that is more than water is you choosing to eat part of your daily requirement for calories in liquid form. There is absolutely no requirement for this, as there is for calories at all, and water.

>>12634700
>Every drink that is more than water is you choosing to eat part of your daily requirement for calories in liquid form.
Yes, which I do, because again, I'm emaciated. Don't have much of an appetite for giant plates of food and I happen to like a nice glass of whole milk to keep from wasting away even more.
>>12634690
>Drinking water isn't the bare minimum, fucking fat shit. There isn't a drink that is better than water.
Yes anon, nobody enjoys any drinks except water because it's the best.
Holy shit, keep your fat-brained neurosis to yourself. If you want to only drink water then go right ahead.

>>12632081
do you understand what an alternative hypothesis is?

>>12629863
aspartame is arguably worse for causing cancer though

>>12634997
Aspartame is perfectly safe

>people who drink sugary drinks likely has unhealthy lifestyles
Ya don't say?
