To start your child’s New Year off on a healthy note, Truth Publishing has unveiled a new e-report entitled The Five Soft Drink Monsters: How to Finally Kick the Soft Drink Habit for Good. This step-by-step guide helps students conquer their addiction to the sugar- and calorie-laden soft drinks that are a major contributor to childhood obesity and health problems. Because Mike Adams, the report’s author, believes so strongly in putting kids on the road toward healthy habits, he has made this publication available for download at www.TruthPublishing.com for a cost of just $7.95.

In July of last year, the California public school system became the first state to ban soft drink sales at the elementary and junior high levels. Just five months into this restriction, districts are already crying poverty. A recent Associated Press article revealed that some Los Angeles area districts are losing in excess of $1,000 a week as the result of the soda ban, but the health of students is no doubt benefiting from the soft drink ban, says Adams.

Why are students and parents so easily addicted to soft drinks? “Like with drugs and alcohol, dependency on soda’s caffeine, fizz and sweetness quickly becomes an addition,” explains Mike Adams, author of The Five Soft Drink Monsters. He goes on to point out that, “Soft drinks are damaging the health of our school children. They’re not only causing obesity and diabetes, they’re also contributing to behavioral disorders and impaired learning ability.”

Adams’ commitment to overcoming these problems couldn’t be more timely. With the number of overweight children in the United States having tripled over the last three decades, obesity has become a national epidemic. The prevalence of calorie-packed school vending machines is just contributing to the dilemma. Adams is quick to assert that “children’s health should not be exploited for the sake of raising public education funds.” His solution: “Soda vending machines and lunch-served soft drinks should be banned. Natural juices, water or other beverages should be offered in their place.”

Adams knows that following this advice is easier said than done. That’s where The Five Soft Drink Monsters offers real solutions. It offers young people the motivation, techniques and know-how to kick their soft drink habit for life.
