JAKARTA - Usus is an important organ in the digestive system and immunity. Microbiomes in the intestines can also affect the central nervous system, which controls brain function.
Therefore, digestive health must be maintained properly so as not to interfere with the continuity of its functions for the body. One way to protect it is to avoid consuming drinks that have the potential to damage the intestines, as below.
1. Energy drink
Quoted from Eat This Not That, on Thursday, June 12, 2025, energy drinks that are usually consumed to relieve fatigue do not have a good impact on the intestines. Energy drinks can cause gastritis, inflammation, increased gut motility, and diarrhea, especially if they contain a lot of caffeine.

2. Soda drink
Soda drinks containing high amounts of processed sugar can also cause gastroynthesinal in people with colon irritation syndrome (IBS) and intestinal inflammation (IBD). This can occur because the sugar content may not be absorbed properly into the intestinal organs.
3. Jus with sugar
Consumption of juice with additional sugar must also be limited. This is because any drink made mostly from additional sugar without nutritional value can change the balance of the gut microbiome, thus benefiting bad bacteria.
Therefore, it is recommended to choose fruit juice or vegetables in its entirety, without any additional ingredients, especially sugar. Thus, the juice can provide vitamins, minerals, and phytonutriene well for the body.
