Another reason to pass on the Sodas

Over at Parent Dish is an interesting post regarding the use of the preservative Sodium Benzoate found in many soft drinks. Apparently it can alter DNA structure and has been linked to degenerate DNA diseases like Parkinson's. Yikes! When combined with the high fructose corn syrup and acids that rot away tooth enamel .. not to mention the complete lack of anything nutritionally sound .. makes you want to spit out every sip ever taken!
