Carbonated drinks do not help in the treatment of diarrhea
British scientists proved, that, contrary to popular belief, carbonated drinks like coca cola, does lemonade help in treating diarrhea and vomiting. According to the researchers, the healing effect of sweet drinks on gastric problems is a myth, which has not the slightest scientific justification. In case of severe diarrhea and vomiting, children under 5 years of age should receive drinks due to the risk of dehydration, however, sweet cola and fruit juices may only increase the occurrence of symptoms and certainly do not improve the condition of the digestive system.
