Now that I have ranted about soft drinks you're probably wondering what should you be drinking. The very best thing you can drink is purified water. Be careful of the flavored waters, as many of these contain calories from sugar. If you want flavored water, take purified water and add some fresh lime or lemon juice. If you absolutely have to have that sweet flavor, add some stevia or sweet leaf, which is a natural sweetener.
Remember that juices contain a fair amount of sugar as well, so drinking juice throughout the day is not a great idea either.

Stevia is unique in the world of sweetners in that it does not trigger cravings. Even "diet" sodas that don't have sugar actually make us want MORE sweets. The components they use to give the sweet flavor is at least as bad for us as the refined sugars. Stevia is by far a better choice.
