Last week, we focused on a few things you could do to eat more vegetables to improve your happiness and dental health. Welcome to our 8 part series on Knowledge isn't enough. This is our 6th part, and today we are blogging about soda.
Soda is a habit that can not only destroy your overall health but can wreak havoc on your smile. Soda not only can cause a problem for your overall dental health because of the sugar, but it can also stain your teeth, reducing the healthy look. Here are 3 ways to reduce your soda consumption.
- Reduce gradually. If you consume large amounts of soda, reduce the dose gradually. Take it slow. Maybe cut it down by one and then slowly step down from there.
- Replace with water or other non-sugar drink. Your body needs fluid to live. So, consider healthier alternatives.
- Make it challenging to get ahold of. For some of the other series, we talked about making it more comfortable; with this one, make it harder. Buy only one can and have it in your fridge, or a two-liter instead of a 12 pack. Place them in a cupboard instead of the fridge, so they are out of sight. Little habit changes can make a big difference.
