Does soda pop reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills?

No. It does not. Nor will it ever. That is a complete myth. The only ones you need to worry about, are ones like Fresca which contain REAL grapefruit juice. Grapefruit is known to interact with many drugs, including birth control. Grapefruit slows down your body's ability to eliminate the estrogen from your pills which leaves it circulating in your system longer which then greatly increases all of the risks that birth control carries. You can still drink it, (I do) but sparingly and not often.

What does heart medication has to do with grapefruits?

Grapefruits have many risks if eaten excessively, or even with moderated consumption:Drug InteractionsChemicals in the pulp and juice of grapefruit affect the efficiency of enzymes needed to break down prescription drugs in your body. If you can't metabolize them as manufacturers anticipate you will, you may end up with dangerously high levels of certain medications in your blood. This increases the severity of side effects associated with the particular drug you're taking. The drugs that have proved to not interact well with grapefruit are antidepressants, anti-seizure medications and immunosuppressants, according to MayoClinic.com. Saquinavir, a drug used in the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus, is dangerous to take with grapefruit. Properties in the juice and pulp also affect statins taken for high cholesterol and calcium channel blockers for high blood pressure. MayoClinic.com warns that even drinking grapefruit juice a day after you've taken any of these medications can have adverse effects. In addition, Wellness.com says that grapefruit might possibly affect the efficiency of antihistamines.

The woman was also on birth control pills. Grande concluded that her patient was already at risk for clotting, and adding grapefruit to her diet compounded her problems. It disabled an important enzyme that would have metabolized the estrogen in her birth control pills. Liddle's SyndromeLiddle's Syndrome is a serious disorder characterized by over-efficient renal activity, resulting in the reabsorption of sodium that your body ordinarily would flush out.

Aetna InteliHealth reports that grapefruit in excess can affect your potassium and aldosterone levels. Kidney StonesReports conflict as to whether grapefruit and grapefruit juice are good for kidney stones or may cause them. Aetna InteliHealth says that tests and studies have shown mixed results.
