Of Course Not
Of course not. It’s a simple machine that runs on gasoline. It can’t run on anything else – water, added sugar, soda, preservatives, oil, plastic… You get the picture.
A car engine is a simple machine, made to do one thing, turn the tires (very basic idea yall. I am FAR from a mechanic.) If you ask it to run on anything other than gasoline, the effect is almost immediate. It’s not going to run right. Sometimes it won’t even start. The quality of the fuel counts too. Bad fuel will make the engine grossly underperform.
Our bodies are not simple machines
We are a complex system made of smaller complex systems. Our bodies run on water and oxygen. Not gasoline, plastic, sugar, added sugar, or oil, but water and oxygen. You’ve heard the statistic, right? Our bodies are 60% water. We. Need. Water. Just like we need oxygen (the O in H2O, see how that works?) We have built-in systems to help us mitigate the effects of running on bad fuel, or on plastic, sugar, vegetable oil, etc. But is that the best use of our bodies?
Shouldn’t we honor our body and treat it like the magnificent gift that it is? Don’t we want to give it the absolute best fuel available? Don’t we deserve the best?
Water and Oxygen (H2O)
For our bodies, water and oxygen is the best fuel. Our bodies deserve water. Pure, clean water. Not soda. Not sugar. Not oil. Not plastic. Water. Clean, pure water.
Sure, we can run on soda, but not anywhere near as well as we can run on pure, clean water. Some of our systems (namely our digestive system) are so busy flushing out the toxins (or the overload of sugar) – that it just can’t keep up. That’s when you end up with pain, or exhaustion, or chronic illnesses.
There’s an easy fix
Thank goodness that it’s an easy fix!! Begin crowding out the bad fuel and start to drink more water. You will immediately begin to feel better. You will have more energy, better memory, less pain, better sleep, and more.
Stop drinking soda
As a wellness guide, I’m here to help you. I have created a program – Stop Drinking Soda – to guide you in your efforts to ditch the soda-drinking habit. So you can easily crowd out the sugar-filled drinks and have room for more water.
