Some soft drinks destroy DNA

A study conducted by a British university recently that some soft drinks can result in damage to the cell body to eventually lead to cirrhosis of liver injury or Parkinson's disease.
The study has indicated that one of the preservatives commonly used in soft drinks have the potential to destroy the vital parts of DNA.
According to the study published yesterday in the British newspaper The Independent, the concerns about the safety of the use of material denoted by (E 211), known as sodium benzoate.
And sodium benzoate preservative used for decades by the global soft drinks industry, estimated profits of 74 billion dollars. Material and sodium benzoate is derived from the acid Alpinzak, and there are naturally in cranberries, but is used in large quantities to prevent mold in soft drinks.
The article added to pickles and sauces. Has already raised the substance sodium benzoate because of the sensation caused by fears of cancer when they interact with vitamin C in soft drinks, which produces benzene, a substance that causes cancer.
Have discovered a survey conducted by the Food Standards Agency on gasoline in the soft drinks last year found high levels of it in four types of drinks have been withdrawn from the market.
And decided to expert in the field of aging studies at the University of Sheffield, who was working on the study of sodium benzoate since released a research paper in 1999, he decided to talk about another danger.
Was tested by Professor Peter Piper, a professor of molecular biology and biotechnology, the impact of sodium benzoate on yeast cells live in his lab to discover that the material benzoate has worked to destroy a vital part of DNA that er in the power station of cells (known as mitochondria). Piper said the newspaper also said: "These chemicals have the potential to cause severe damage to DNA in cells of the most important part of the mitochondria to the point of totally disabled"
