Sugar causes fat buildup on your organs, it fucks people up in a lot of ways besides diabetes.
I know. I really need to stop. I'm going to die before I hit 60 for sure. I've been drinking 6+ cans a day for over a decade now. I fucking love the stuff though and last time I talked to a doctor about it she told me even fruit juice has way too much sugar so it kind of seems like I'm fucked if I drink just about anything tasty
I dropped sugary drinks years ago, water tastes good now. Fruit juice and simple sugars in general are nasty.
For me it's a horrible cycle because I smoke a cigarette and that makes me want a coke, then I drink a coke and that makes me want a cigarette. I haven't been able to stand the taste of water ever since I moved away from Knoxville about 16 years ago. Water anywhere but my hometown tastes way off to me. Especially water in Kentucky. That shit is super nasty. Filtered water is admittedly a lot more tolerable though and I should drink it more often. I try to have a glass at least once a week but I know that's way too little. Baby steps.
