Man shares shocking effects on his body from drinking 5 liters of soda daily without any water.
Tom Bowey, known as “Dr Pepper Man” among his friends, reveals the shocking effects of consuming 5 liters of soda daily.
For years, he avoided water, spending around $325 a month on sugary drinks. The impact on his health, body, and finances highlights the risks of excessive soda consumption.
Bowey, a father of two from Buckinghamshire, England, estimates he has spent over $38,000 on Dr Pepper in the last decade.
This habit came at a heavy price—both financially and physically.
Man faced health consequences after sugary drinks
As expected, Bowey’s health suffered significantly.
Over time, he began experiencing persistent headaches, poor sleep, and chronic bloating. His dentist warned him of severe acid erosion, equivalent to that of a 70-year-old, despite being much younger.
“I’ve basically got the teeth of a pensioner,” Bowey explained. “You gain weight quickly when you’re just drinking sugar.”
Bowey recalls how his addiction started innocently. It began with a single soda at lunch, but quickly escalated.
Work colleagues often brought him soda from nearby cafes, and he took full advantage of vending machines at work.
Eventually, soda became his sole source of hydration, and he completely stopped drinking water.
Bowey’s daily 5-liter soda routine
Bowey’s routine became predictable and excessive:
– Morning: He drank a can of soda as soon as he woke up, bringing another for his drive to work.
– At Work: He purchased two bottles in the morning and two more in the afternoon.
– Evening: At home, he continued drinking soda until bedtime.
This habit, combined with lack of water, contributed to rapid weight gain and constant bloating. Bowey soon realized he needed to make a change.
Determined to break his soda addiction, Bowey sought the help of Dr. David Kilmurry.
He decided to try hypnotherapy and connected with Dr. David Kilmurry for a two-hour session over Zoom.
The session had a profound effect, helping him quit his soda habit entirely.
“I don’t look at fizzy drinks; I’m not remotely tempted,” he said.
With his health concerns mounting, Tom knew he needed drastic changes.
Tom now opts for water or weak squash, marking a complete shift from his former soda-heavy routine. His story is a reminder of the health risks linked to excessive sugary drink consumption.
