3. I can attest to this

My mother used to drink sodas all the time at 85 years she started to show extreme signs of dementia. She would be aggressive and more depressed. It got to the point when she called me i dreaded her calls. Her memory was getting worst. She fell and hit her head and I was able to take over her affairs and get a full time caregiver to live with her. She had been a widow for 10 years . I told the caregiver to wean her off sodas and offer her water more. She is 91 now still with dementia but can walk up and down her stairs, walks fine and still lives in her home. I think doing away with sodas has extended her life. My husband and I also quit drinking sodas aound the same time and we both are healthier. Our son who is on the autistic spectrum has never drank soda, though he has his issues we both feel he would have been worst. And he is healthy and does have weight issues which is common with his classmates.
