Water or Coke?
WATER
#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.. (Likely applies to half the world population) #2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger. #3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%. #4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study. #5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. #6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. #7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page. #8.. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day? COKE #1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident. #2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days. #3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the 'real thing' sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china. #4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola. #5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion. #6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes. #7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy. #8... To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle.. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield. FOR YOUR INFORMATION: #1 the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis. #2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials. #3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years! Now the question is, would you like a glass of water? or Coke? |

Re: Water or Coke?
Not really relevant though is it ? The whole leave it for X hours and X will happen, it is in your mouth for approximately a second and starts getting broken down as soon as it's inside you, I'm not saying it's a healthy choice, but I doubt the truth of half of those statements and the relevance of the other half. It's like everything, fine as long as it is in moderation.

Re: Water or Coke?
It's not for me although we had a bottle from Christmas in a cupboard which cme in very handy the other week for cleaning a pewter tankard I found for £2 on the market. I left it overnight and when I came down in the morning the kitchen stank of burnished metal.
Still, it did the job and my beer tastes wonderful out of the tankard now! |
Re: Water or Coke?
I don't like water very much but in this case I would definitely choose water.
I am not a fan of fizzy drinks.......they are bad for your bones.......and being at a'certain age' I have to think of my bones. |

Re: Water or Coke?
Anything other than water if you live in Aberdeen esp when the level of metaldehyde is 4x higher than the recommended safe level. At least they have an excuse for how they behave.

How's this for a coke fact
There is so much sugar in the coke that your natural reaction should be to gag. But knowing this, they put a chemical in to stop your gag reflex. |
