Abstract
There are so many beverages to choose from and this may introduce confusion to the consumer. The contribution of a beverage to energy intake, intake of essential nutrients and evidence for positive or negative effects on health benefits can serve as useful guide for the selection of beverages. These are the three factors that may guide an individual in the use of beverages. When investigated based on these three attributes, water emerges the best beverage but there are other healthy beverages. Water helps in regulating body temperature, waste excretion, digestion, circulation and boosting of energy. Drinking water is one of the most ignored healthy habits. Major substances found in other beverages that affect the metabolism of humans include alcohol, caffeine, sugar and taurine. Their metabolism account for the sedative, stimulating and energy boosting effects of beverages. Water should not be completely replaced by other beverages. Consumers should be enlightened on the calorie intake of beverages healthy for the human body. The abuse of the beverages has serious health consequences.
