Does hearing about having a combo of sweet with alcohol, or popping a mint after drinking cola make you cringe? Well, take a moment to think why. For many years, we’ve been hearing about combinations of edibles that experts suggest shouldn’t be consumed together. The former combination which is that of sugar or anything sweet with alcohol can be harmful because alcohol tends to convert sugar into saturated fats which can be accumulated in the body. With the latter, it is so that having a mint after drinking a temporarily refreshing (but truly dehydrating) bottle of cola, can make your stomach bloat. Similar is the situation with various medications. Even though individually helpful, consuming them together may not be the best idea.
