8 beverages you should avoid during summer

Sugary Sodas: Packed with high amounts of sugar or artificial sweeteners, leading to dehydration.

Packaged Fruit Juices: Often loaded with added sugars and lack the fiber naturally present in whole fruits.

Energy Drinks: High in caffeine and sugar, leading to dehydration and potential jitters.

Hot Beverages: While coffee and tea may offer some health benefits, their hot temperature can further raise your body temperature.

Alcohol: A diuretic, meaning it increases urination and can lead to dehydration.

Milk-Based Beverages: While a good source of calcium, some people find milk-based drinks are difficult to digest.

Sports Drinks: Formulated to replenish electrolytes lost during intense physical activity.

Carbonated Beverages: While seemingly refreshing, the carbonation can cause bloating and gas, especially in hot weather.
