SODA: WHY ITS CRAVING?

 Most people know how dangerous consumption of soda is to their health but still take it anyway. Even when they try to stop , they don't just succeed in their attempt to do that. It's simply because of the craving associated with it that can't just be stopped by mere willpower.

To explain how the craving occurs:
The human brain has a part known as reward system which is responsible for compensating people when they perform a particular action to promote their survival. An example of such action is eating or drinking.

When food is taken, a feel-good chemical known as dopamine is released and same is interpreted by the brain as pleasure.

So, in order to get more pleasure,the brain keep seeking for actions that stimulate this feel-good chemo chemical release like eating or drinking a particular food/drink.

Soda and other high sugar foods provide a much greater dopamine release than whole foods, which is responsible for the craving associated with them.

This can lead to a vicious cycle in which the brain seeks more and more high sugar foods to get the same pleasure response .

This is more like a programmed response from the body system.
