A doctor has gone viral revealing why we may need to ditch our favourite fizzy drinks – warning they could be causing damage to our bodies.

Neena, a doctor who specialises in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, revealed the adverse effects popular sparkling drinks could have if we overdo it.

The 34-year-old has been working as a Florida, US-based medic for the past three years, and has built a following of 110,000 on TikTok – where she shares health insights the general public may not know.

In a recent clip which has been viewed 475,000 times, Dr Neena shared the reason we may need to start cutting back on our fizzy drink intake, reports What’s The Jam.

She said: “Constantly drinking drinks – like bubblies, Pellegrinos, carbonated water beverages – is not good for you in the long run if you drink them every day.

“They can weaken the valve that keeps all your stomach contents down.

“Between the oesophagus and your stomach, that area has a valve that helps keep all of your food contents down.

“When you drink too much of these carbonated beverages, it can weaken that valve, and that can cause increased reflux.

“These carbonated beverages can also increase stomach acid production.”

The doctor says it can cause Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) – a condition in which stomach acid repeatedly flows back up into the tube connecting the mouth and stomach.

She adds: “In the long run, too much of these carbonated beverages can also erode tooth enamel, which predisposes [you] to more cavities.

“[You can] drink these [carbonated drinks], but not every day and not all the time – in moderation.”

The post garnered 15,000 likes, but not all users were happy with the news.

One person said: “JUST LET ME HAVE ONE THING.”

“My valve is superior and cannot be weakened!” quipped another viewer.

Someone else commented: “Life is hard enough, why we can’t have nice things?”

“But I love carbonated drinks,” another user moaned.
