3. SODA
Can you guess the ingredients in a can of soda? Any clue what “Empty Calories” are?

4. Procedure
To illustrate the “Empty Calorie” concept, I will make our own homemade soda
10 ounces of carbonated water
Tablespoon of High Fructose corn syrup
Caramel color, caffeine, and Phosphoric acid will be left out
40 grams of sugar = 20 cubes
Stir
There are about 10 teaspoons of sugar in a 12-ounce can of most sodas!

5. Discussion Billions of gallons
Processed foods are also loaded with sugar
200 pounds of sugar
Healthy alternatives? = nutritional value

6. Discussion Continued
Sugar = raises insulin production, cholesterol, weight gain
Phosphoric acid = osteoporosis
Caffeine = hypertension, jitters, problems sleeping, addiction (Brochure)
High calorie fast food, school lunches, lack of exercise
