I do not know if the soda tastes sweet. I prefer only one type of soda called ‘goli soda’. It is very nice and gives some relief after a heavy meals or dinner for some people . I think this number will be very less when compared to the tea and coffee purists.

No one is preferring Diet soda nowadays. They are going for other varieties introduced in the market. They are not addicts. They drink and change their brands every time.

Sportsmen and spectators generally love such drinks. But, nowadays no sports lovers are enjoying them outside. They are confining themselves to their houses and drink if they (kids) so want which can be restricted by elderly people

Mmhh soda that’s a hard habit to break I must say but it can be done if the willingness is there. It’s a hard habit to break. But what if I drink water regularly wouldn’t that help even if I took side on a daily basis? Okay am not an ardent drinker of sodas I seldom drink it but when I do it could be after maybe a month or something like that. I love soda but it wouldn’t take the place of my one litre of water everyday. There is a friend of mine who hardly takes water instead he drinks soda as his water. And I thought this is quite risky when it comes to his health. He actually went down with high blood pressure, hypertension and that really put him down at some point. He had to get off so many things he was told he cannot eat so many things no sugar, minimal salt, no carbonated drinks it’s was very hard for him, but as the days went by he started getting used to the idea of not having this sweet stuff, then the regrets set in and he vowed never again will be take things for granted especially when it comes to health matters

LOL. It’s not soda I’m having a problem with. It’s coffee!! 🙂

I stopped drinking so much because gives you gas and not good for your teeth either

Drinking soda daily is dangerous to your health and brain. It creates gas and stomach problem and weakens the activities of it. Avoid taking soda.

These 5 tips are boiled down to one word and that is DISCIPLINE. As you can see, there are 3 I’s in the word discipline and one d, c, p, l, n and e. I is the first person in the part of speech which is the pronoun. It is no other person who is so concerned about others but the doer himself and that is I in my point of view. Nobody could effect the stoppage of drinking soda except to start with myself. I would do it by myself.

Next thing is D which purports to DO it. If not, who else for I am the one who could benefit from it. Next is C which is referred to Christ who sets an example for me, for us. Then P as in pay attention to your goal of stopping drinking soda. Then l as loving yourself and n is nothing is so concerned and the last is E for endurance. Endurance in simple meaning is to finish it to the end. So be it.

I try to avoid and drink cold drinks and sodas rarely. Instead I try to have lots of water and regular green tea. Also its better to eat healthy and avoid heavy and spicy foods, as well as too much of sweets. Keeping healthy stomach is the best way of avoiding sodas etc.

I am suffering from the very same problem but I am afraid breaking this habit is not that easy rather it is a tough job and will require a lot of patience.

These are goals to be achieved within a long period. It could be within 3years, five or ten years and above. For instance you may set a goal for yourself, l shall be the first to discover HIV/AIDS vaccines” I shall obtain as in my WAEC examination. Must be planned and excuted with care and vigour. You must channel all that is required to achieve it with concern and perserance. I mean postive things and activities.

Life is governed by law and principle. Ignorant of these laws and principles will negate the complimentary rewards of life. Everthing in life has a natural process or secret code called rules, principles, laws to unlocking it.

Work hard to achieve the set goals. Continuebworking until you chieve your goals.
You may have problems or distraction. Do you relent, moven on. You may change the process if the one are following does not work out fine. Persist until you achieve the set goals; be courageous/ positive, do not give up trying until you reach the joyful end. Note scientists have been trying for over years to dis over to discover vaccines for HIV/AIDS. They are still trying . one day, the will dscover it and they save millions of lives and they will get blessings from God. Kanu Nwankwo continued to try until he finally became the ulimate in the game of football.

These are goals you set to achieve within a short period. For instance, if your goal is to come 1st in the first term examination, all your activities will be geared towards coming first in the class, doing all class assignment, play, gossip and more attention in the class, properly, reading hard and regularly with interest and concentration, reading wide and seeking explanation when necessary, keeping friends whose ambition is to fall within the 1st five in your class or other classes.Note this ambition, focus and endpoint is for a term or for a session. This is a short-term goal.

Nigeria is one of the country with diverse culture, religion and tradion. These sometimes are the basis of discrimination, ethnic and religion crisis. This is not proper because of it’s consequences. It does not enthance development. We should appreciate individual differences and learn to tolerate. Usually those discriminated against on the of gender, sex, color and religion should seek redress from family, churches, all levels of govenment, NGOs and other agencis. To be a true nigeria. Learn to tolerate, be patriotic and contribute to make nigeria great.

Personal factors:

All of us who are involved in one act of indiscipline or the other are self-centered, self-justifying, self-satisfying and selfish. We want every thing to be done in our favour. We hate to wait. We are impatient. We want to go/do things before others. We are arrogant, and we not know what indiscipline is and why we should be disciplined. We are arrogant of laws and even if you know them, we scarcely dare to keep it. We hate our environment, our neighbours, our coountry and ourselves, this hatred is manifested in all acts of indiscipline that we exhibit. For instance, we all are aware of the factthat we should not urinate or defecate in the streets, the school compound and in the opening. We should not litter papers or materials along the streets on our compounds both at home and in schools.

We should wait for turns anywhere and at any time. How many of us obey this? Do you know the school rules and regulations? What about the rules and regulations or contributions of your country? Do you really know the rules and regulations in your family? How often do you go contrary to them and how often do you obey them? The number of times you go contrary to them, those are the number of times you are undisciplined. On the other hand, the numbers of times you obey them are the number of times you are disciplined.

Who and where can we trace the gross act of indiscipline in nigeria and also in your own country? I think the first person to blame is you. What do you mean” may be your question. Do self-examination of yourself and you will know how greatly you have made nigeria and your own country an indiscipline nation. Now ponder a bit and make a resolution on being law abiding. Start from your home, the school and to larger communities. The school authorities contribute to act of indiscipline. They provide inadequate fund for running the school.in that case, the equipment and other teaching learning materials are indequate and insufficient for the students. This leads to struggling by the students to get before others. Toilet facilies are usually indequate, insufficient and in some cases not provided at all. This leads to students defecating and urinating iniscriminately around the compound. Schools are not provided with dustbin nor do they have central place for the collection of refuse. The students thus litter the school compound with papers and other rubbish.

To overcrowding and thus inconvenient and breads acts of indisciple.school are sited in places that are vulnerable to indisciplinary acts. Student when schools make rules and regulations to indulge in gross indisciplinary acts. When schools make rules and regulations and do not insist on students complying with it they encourage indiscipline indirectly. Teachers are not encouraged or paid regularly. They thus abadon their jobs and the students swim in indisciplinary acts. At times the classroom are overoweded. You can imagine school children sit on the floor for their lessons. School functionaries are selected and not elected and they are hardly given authority and power. They become weakn in carrying out their responsibities. These and more influence all the in disciplinary acts observed in our schools, communities and the country. Are you disciplined? Please, learn to be disciplined, take your turn. Are you struggling for things. Do not urinate or defecate carelessly. If nobody sees you God do. How hygienic Are you? Do you drop dirty any how and in unauthorized places? How do you feel about nigeria or your own country? How do you think we can build a better nigeria free from corruption and other social vices that present us in a negative way all over the world? Start practicing them now.

Why is it that there is no cultism in the northern universities? Is it that they know God more than we do or that they are more intelligent than we do? Are they better nigerians than we do? Have you ever wondered why they are more united than other parts of nigeria? Do you know that they have fewer cases of HIV/AIDS? Do you know that they fewer cases of drugs addicts? What about child trafficking? In which part of the country is it more? What about 419, robbery, bribbery and corruption? In which part of the country are they practiced most? What impression do you have about our muslim brothers and sisters? I think they are better nigerias than we do and probably that is why God is rewarding them by making to always determine the political will of nigeria. What about that? Think about that?

The base of indiscipline amongst the students may be traced to their homes. Some parents are perpetrators of indiscipline. Because the home is the first social contact of the child where behaviours are modeled, whatever standard and values the child intracts with, influence her or his behaviours outside the home factors that ignite indiscipline.
Inability of the parents to care for the children by providing them basic amenties of life like food, clothing and shelter.
Inability to pay children school fees as at when due. Some because they do not care and some becausebthey not have them.
Inability to inculate the basic principals of morals in the children.
Parents irrational interfernce in school discipline because of their assumed position in the society.
Parents who exhibit all manners of indiscipline pass it unto their children. The way they eat, urinate in public, laugh, talk about others abuse, drive, respect themselves and others are factors that influence the behaviours of their children.

You have done well informing us about side effects of soda drinks. I hope many of us would benefit from this information.There was a time when I loved these cold drinks but when I learnt about my diabetes, I stopped this practice. But then I turned to diet type drinks which are also harmful. so I tried lemon water and lemon plus ginger tea, and used them within a limit. It helps me get rid of soft drinks.

You are right because soda is harmfull to our boddy. In the soda mainly substance co2 and they harmfull to body.

Drinking soda leaves dangerous effects on health. You lose water when you sweat, urinate and breathe. For the body to continue functioning properly, you must replace the lost water with ingested fluids. Sodas are often consumed in the place of water or other hydrating fluids. Many sodas contain caffeine,

which acts as a diuretic, increasing urination and leaving the body with less available fluid to carry out important functions. Additionally, some diet sodas contain significant amounts of sodium, which may draw water from the cells and promote dehydration.

Many soft drinks contain significant quantities of sugar. One 12-ounce serving of cola, for example, includes 39 grams, or 3.3 tablespoons, of sugar. Consuming such large quantities of sugar elevates your blood glucose levels and may increase your risk for cardiovascular disease. Additionally, many sodas contain high fructose corn syrup or HFCS as their primary sugar ingredient.

HFCS may stress the pancreas and lead to fluctuating blood sugar levels. Consuming sugary sodas day after day can contribute to the onset of non-insulin dependent diabetes, or type 2 diabetes.

Weight gain results when you consume more calories than your body burns. A 12-ounce serving of cola contains 140 calories, often called “empty calories” because they provide no nutritional value. Drinking one can of cola a day for four weeks is equivalent to ingesting 3,920 extra calories, or a gain of 1.1 pounds if the calories are not burned.

Calcium is an essential mineral for strong bones and teeth. Consuming high amounts of phosphoric acid, a common ingredient in sodas, can deplete the calcium from your bones and decrease calcium absorption. Among women, this may lead to poor bone development or osteoporosis, a condition characterized by brittle and weak bones.

I don’t usually drink soda for i know its bad for the health. I always drink 8 glass of water or more everyday to get more fluid in my body and prevent dehydration. If you drink more cola rather than water there is a possibly to take your health at risk or get serious illness from it. Prevention is much better than cure. If you really want to take care of yourself, be natural in every drink or food you take. You can also drink bottle of pineapple juice, buko juice, calamansi juice for refreshment every morning to start your day just to make it different but good for the body coupled with your daily exercise routine while doing some activities your fond of doing so. Don’t forget also to have a positive attitude in life to achieve optimal and holistic being.

I would drink a Coke, maybe 1 to 2 times a month but even then, it is not good. I saw a report of the amount of sugar that a coke bottle contains and I was surprised. I was, also, surprised to see that you can use the leftovers of a 2 liter Coke Bottle when it goes flat. The flatness of the liquid can be used to help clean the strains of your dirty bathtub, so imagine what it is doing to your body, teeth and bones? Good article and well done.

I really become addict to soda drinks during summers. Anything I eat especially if I eat out it has to be accompanied by soda.
I try my best to control my taste buds but end up badly giving up.
No doubt I’m filled with all the guilt later .
Sometimes I really wonder what good it did to me by giving up for a momentary pleasure.

good article and well writing, but break the habit and stop these drinks for sure is not really wanted, as these do help at times, when you need really carb for when you are dizzy or if you like to digest hard foods they do help.

This is the reason why we should never lost hope in times of trouble. What we do is to grip on our faith and believe we will always pass every troubles that comes to our life. Holding on and when we conquer it, the fruits will grow for us.

Definately.

Wow that’s a good piece there reminding us that no situation is permanent. Even though we may go through pain, trials and tribulations we should never loose hope because trouble brings us closer to God and makes us much stronger. When we go through pain we should not look at it like something has has come to finish us but something that has come to make us stronger and give us a hope for tomorrow.many are the times when we feel hopeless when we are going through troubles but that should not dicourage is instead it should encourage us because it’s always a blessing in disguis3.

yes. one should develop positive thinking. It can be developed only through prayer. When yoga is clubbed to a prayer the things become even easy. Finally, what we have to do with prayer? Prayer is meant for wishing the happiness of others and wishing for their success. This is the secret of prayer. Pray for others, their happiness, their wellness, for their good health, for their success, and for their well-being.

As I grow older, I learn. And the learning from different situations strengthen me to a better, higher and happier level in life. Family, my husband and children play the most important part in that growing process. Family problems put the bulk of the load on our shoulders from my past mistakes and troubles. But it’s so good to know that we have a Higher Wisdom greater than ourselves.

Patience and endurance are character-building traits that involve hard work. Love, faith and hope come from within and we work on them to draw courage from.

Yes, it true that there is pain and there is blessing because behind darkness live light and light blessing and darkness is pain in practical life. If you have the light of knowledge there will be blessings no darkness or pain.

Nowadays every one of us is in mental tension, running after happiness. None welcomes pain, whether physical or mental. In God’s creation, there is always variation. There is variation in the weather, temperature. There is variation in a day, morning follows evening. He knew that His children would get bored if they lead their lives in a static condition. That is why a great variation in body parameters like blood pressure, sugar level ,heart beats has been introduced in His design .

He knew that his children will enjoy only in variation. That is to say, variation is essential for a sound living. Unless one is in pain, how he can feel the pleasure? A difference in level is essential for enjoyment in the life.

In other words, pain is a signal when something goes wrong. It tells ‘Take care ‘. But we do not listen to it, neglect it. That creates disease in the body, and finally leads to dreaded disease like cancer.

There use to be a saying, no pain, no gain. We go through things in life to make us stronger for someone else that made be in need of a helping hand. Our testimony can save lives. If I can tell people the things I had to go through in life, just to make it to this point. We are here for a reason and we must do what do what we where brought to do. That is to change lives and make others believe how important it is for them to be here at time where encouragement is needed.

There are so many haters in the world. We cannot describe their attitude, We cannot also find reason why they hate. This is normal everywhere in business, in politics even in the academe. We cannot please everyone.Others hate because of jealousy and some personal views. It should be better for the person/ persons to analyze whether it is justifiable to hate. It should also be nice if the haters evaluate themselves if perfect or not.This time in the country where I live, the haters of our new president are the media people.They keep on twisting the truth, thus putting the nation to danger. I also hate haters. They have to investigate themselves about their true image.

Yes, there are countless haters on earth and countless lovers on earth but we all must keep in ind that hate springs from evil past and evil early environment and it is a fact that haters become greedy and jealous by birth.

If you can just stop loving her then you never really loved her at all. Love doesn’t work that way. If you ever truly love someone, then it never goes away. It can become something else. There are all different sorts of love. It can even become hate- a thin line and all that- and, really, hate is just another kind of caring.

Even if you hate me, Zero…I will tame that beast in you…as many times as necessary. If you haven’t completely lost your sanity…I won’t let you die. Hate vampires, hate me…at least that means you haven’t given up!” Yuki said to Zero. “How can I hate you?

You should never trust a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Because the only thing the wolf will ever want to do is break you.

I would join Combat or die trying… A fine choice of words. What had been meant as a melodramatic proclamation was now to be my intended irony

Wow that’s some good advice right there. I have always believed that taking natural remedies are the best way to go. One has to get opinions from different people to be able to make a decision on what she would do to curb the discomfort and pain that they ar3 going through. All you have said is true many doctors would opt for surgery as a first option without digging further to know where the problem started from. There are so many women who go through this problem of fibroids and many would opt to go have a surgery just to rid themselves off the pain.it’s not easy for someone who suffers from that excruciating pain to be told to try taking apple cider, or drink lots of water and so on and so forth. All they want is to just have some sort of relief. It may be hard to convince one to do that, but the end result is always surgery. The side ffects are many, but what better option does one have. I would recommend the home remedies but if only someone would heal totally for once would they take up the idea. Hard decision to make indeed.
