he should be careful aluminum edges are sharp

>>5843854
probably soda, because of the sugar

>inb4 muh diet coke
>inb4 muh coke zero

>>5843858
sounds healthy.

>>5843858

Can you even fit through a door anymore?

Nothing wrong with having a few beers every week. Actually, doing so would improve HDL levels. Soda is just empty fucking calories.

>>5843858
i drink 16 anon, i love you

>>5843854
Soda doesn't have many benefits, but moderate drinking of any form of ethanol is beneficial to health. If you're just having one can though, neither are really bad per say. One soda doesn't an unhealthy person make.

>>5843918

Jesus fuck stop trying to justify drinking alcohol. Even IF there are some minor benefits to it there are a fucking boatload of things that accomplish the same and greater benefits that you can eat/drink. If you like drinking, fine, but its like saying that jacking off builds muscle endurance in your arms. Well. Yes, but you can also do better exercises or go to a fucking gym. My point is that you don't need to justify it as long as it isn't getting to be a problem for you/others.

>moderate drinking of any form of ethanol is beneficial to health

source?

>>5843854

Soda, it doesn't have a single benefit.

At least alcohol can do good to your health.

i wish my therapist was this up front and honest..

>>5843902
Those two are even worse than regular soda.

>>5843948

>worse

by what measure?

>>5843936
I was just answering the question you fucking retard. Kill yourself.

>>5843854
Soda. At least there's some partial health benefits to properly moderated alcohol intake. Too bad most people just drink a case at a time.

>>5843974
>muh chemicals

>>5843983

You mad?

>>5843854
Short term soda is better for you since there's no risk of impairment or alcohol poisoning.
Long term beer is better for you because drinking 2 can of soda on a consistent basis = weight gain and diabetes.

>>5844245
2 cans of beer = 1 can of soda in terms of calories

>>5843936
You totally missed the OP didn't you? Here, let me posted it again,

>What is worse for you: a can of soda, or a can of beer?

Now, in this you have two choices. Soda or Beer. There's no 3rd choice for, "a fucking boatload of things that accomplish the same and greater benefits that you can eat/drink."

So, which do you choose? I'd choose the alcohol because it has something that can benefit you, if you aren't getting drunk with it and over doing it. Soda has no redeeming things over the beer in this line of logic.

I don't like either one.

>>5843918
>Soda is just empty fucking calories.

So is beer. What, you thought it was packed with vitamins and essential nutrients? At least soda hydrates you.

I drink diet soda and I'm thin. I have no appetite too and I've been hearing this shitty science about how it makes your appetite increase. I say it's total bullshit.

>>5844264
1=1 , beer has like 43 per 100ml, coke 38

>>5845652
>At least soda hydrates you.

Unless it contains caffeine. Caffeine is a diuretic just like alcohol is.

>>5843854
Well..
I assume a can of beer would be far worse.

>>5843854
They're both empty calories, but at least beer will get you drunk.

>>5843854
the one that you abuse

>>5845667
I don't think there's enough caffeine in a can of soda to really make much difference. Coffee sure, but I never felt more alert after a Coke.

>>5843862
underrated post

>>5843854
How can I make one of these?

>>5846314

How is that not obvious from the photo? You get an empty can. You cut off the top and slit down the side.

>>5846318
You can buy them as well. They're magnets and like a dollar fitty

>>5845659
>I have no appetite too and I've been hearing this shitty science about how it makes your appetite increase. I say it's total bullshit

Well, you convinced me!

>>5845652
I've never had a soda in my life that has quenched my thirst.

>>5846412
It depends on your level of activity. If you've been running track sprints then drinking a soda will just make you more thirsty. If you've just eaten a succulent Super Star burger from Carl's Jr. and follow it up with an ice-cold Dr. Pepper then you should be good to go. I've never done the latter and then had to go seek out water.

>>5846331

Beer contains copper, which is something the body needs. The hops in beer have been proven to help people with sleeping disorder, and there is some study to suggest that it helps with kidney stones.

Coca cola on the other hand is a mountain of sugary water in a can. I guess you could say that one good thing about it is that the sugar is diluted in the water, so it takes longer than a few minutes to develop heart conditions and diabetes.

>>5844057
But it says "natural flavourings" on the bottle

>>5846581
>The hops in beer have been proven to help people with sleeping disorder

So let me get this straight, cutting edge science has confirmed that drinking an ass load of beer will make you fall asleep? I'm stunned, truly I am.

>>5843854
If we are really only talking one can here, I bet its the soda.

If you had 1 or 2 drinks a day, it actually like benefits your health. Soda isn't like that.

>>5846581
>I guess you could say that one good thing about it is that the sugar is diluted in the water, so it takes longer than a few minutes to develop heart conditions and diabetes.

perfect

>>5845688
This guy with the practical answer

>>5843858
Uncle George?

>>5847062
but beer can actually be healthy, especially low alcohol unpasteurized beers. soda... offers nothing except sugar. and diabetes.

Drinking nothing but both for several years is probably bad either way.

>>5847069
no. fuck off, minimal realist

>>5847116
uh okay, ignorant shit who doesn't know about food

>>5843854

Beer = liquid bread
Soda = liquid cancer

>>5847116
Technical and practical are two different things

>>5843936
My doctor actually RECOMMENDED 2 drinks a night for health benefits

>>5847120
uh okay, ignorant shit who thinks he knows about food

>>5847564
Two bottles of wine a night is great for the heart

>>5843936
>its lie saying that jacking off builds muscle endurance in your arms

Are you actually being fucking serious? Just fucking quit while your behind

>>5846790
It's actually the opposite

>>5843858
You'd probably be dead if you drank 30 cans of soda a night.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/02/12/coca-cola-soda-death/1912491/

Probably the beer. More calories, etc.

>>5846471
Because you never did the first example and felt the benefit of water.
I can almost see the food you spit when you talk

>>5846353

Maybe they're only studying fat people that eat too much?

>>5843854
both a can a beer and a can of alcohol are unbelievably sweet in the human system
so both are bad
