It is not the gas that makes you fat, the gas is just carbon dioxide that has no caloric value and the body does not assimilate in any way, but generally it is present in very sugary caloric drinks that for this reason end up having a dehydrating effect and not " kill "thirst like water for example.
It has been proven that the presence of gas in beverages is not the biggest problem of industrialized soft drinks, but rather the presence of sugar, which may be related to cellulite and obesity, rather than the simple intake of carbon dioxide, which does not have energy assimilated by the body .
Another myth is the possible bone decalcification, caused by the gas present in the soft drinks, which would acidify the blood and promote a gradual loss of the bone mass, but this process is not confirmed because the carbon dioxide that reaches the blood is taken to the lungs, be exchanged for oxygen, and never to make exchanges with nutrients from blood or bones. Bubbles from carbonated beverages are like air being expelled from the lungs as a result of food digestion.
