American families are beginning to search for healthy and satisfying alternatives such as Bai 5 to replace the traditional sugary soft-drink as obesity-related risk of early morbidity increasingly threatens the population. Obesity is overwhelming the lives of one in every three Americans according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The National Institutes of Health warn that obesity often leads to conditions including hypertension, type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, gallbladder disease, arthritis, sleep apnea, respiratory conditions, cancer, and finally premature morbidity.
America’s waistline began rising in 1960, and spiking in 1980. Below are trend lines showing the rise of obesity rates in both adults and children:
Harvard University concluded that sugary drinks are in fact a primary contributor to the obesity epidemic. A 20 oz bottle of soda contains 15 to 18 teaspoons of sugar and over 240 calories. A study performed in 2001 found that obesity risk increases by 60% for every 12 oz can of soda consumed each day. Finding a healthy alternative to satisfy your sweet tooth makes saying no to the bad-for-you, yet delicious sugar significantly easier.
Sweet, pure, and satisfying Bai 5, containing only five calories per serving, is a delicious alternative to the average 97 calorie-per-serving soft drink. Now you might be thinking, “Why don’t I just use diet soda as an alternative?” The artificial sweeteners in diet soda, specifically aspartame and sucralose, not only pose numerous health risks of their own, but they also stimulate cravings that will cause you to eat more later in the day. Bai 5 is instead enhanced with stevia, nature’s only zero-calorie sweetener.
By choosing Bai 5, are not only avoiding disease-causing substances, but you are also consuming free radical-fighting antioxidants. Pick one of Bai 5’s nine delicious flavors instead of a sugary soft drink and you won’t regret it!
