Drinking too much soda will melt your bones and teeth. This commonly held perception has been passed down from generation to generation. However, the perception is false.

That's why sleeping right after eating is better for losing weight than exercising actively. But, this sleeping is the meaning of lying. If you sleep too deeply, it will not be good for your health. We should be careful so as not to sleep deeply by mistake.
