  • I can't believe I'm saying this again but sugar and fat are different things. Eating sugar can cause you to get fat but that's because it's converted to fat, not because it IS fat.

    You use fat to fry things in, you use sugar to sweeten things. There is no fat in Coca-Cola apart from trace elements that have crept in. Coca-Cola isn't a fatty drink. It's a sugary drink. None of the drinks on your list are fatty drinks. A milkshake would be a fatty drink because it contain fat (from milk).

    I don't know how I can say this more clearly.

    • I realize that they are different things. But as i said and i quote "Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat!"

      • Just because your body turns sugar into fat, it doesn't make a sugary drink a fatty drink.

        Your body turns the drink into urine. Does that make it a piss-filled drink? Nope.

        Also, the liver doesn't convert all sugar to fatty acids. The liver has the capacity to store a certain amount of sugar. It's only when this storage is exceeded that it turns some sugars into fatty acids.
