While many of us love a nice cold can of coke with our meal, we also know that soda isn’t exactly the best thing for our health. You’ve all more than likely heard of all the negative effects soda has on the body, but for some reason, it doesn’t exactly make us drink it any less.<
Perhaps however, once you hear what one study recently discovered, you’ll take it down a notch when it comes to your fizzy drinks. It turns out, soda not only bloats us and ruins our skin — but it actually makes us gain weight in all the WRONG places. And no, we’re not just talking about our thighs or stomach.

Elevated levels of lead and discoloration caused officials to shut off the water taps at 30 schools in Newark, New Jersey, on Wednesday.
The state Department of Environmental Protection and the city’s school district are currently using alternate water sources, according to a joint release from both parties.
City officials have emphasized that this is a problem with lead piping in the various schools and that overall Newark’s water is unaffected.
“The problem is localized in the finite number of schools, and those are the schools that are the oldest and still have lead piping,” Frank Baraff, the city’s communications director, told The Huffington Post Wednesday. The city’s water supply is “perfectly safe,” he said.
