Water:
1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. This most likely applies to half the worlds population.
2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.
3. Even mild dehydration will slow down your metabolism as much 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 is the number 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 every day?
Coke:
1. In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the truck 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 Coke into the toilet bowl and let it sitand 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 aluminum foil dipped in Coke.
5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coke 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 remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coke will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
8. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase in osteoporosis.
9. To carry Coke syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the > hazardous material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
10. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!
PS: Sugar is not always the culprit in decay from drinking soda. The phosphoric acid does a pretty good job of eating away your teeth too! Drink more water! _________________ Asia Expats Forum Expat Friends Dating
Also Coke is used for cleaning up old coins - especially the old copper ones and it does a bloody good job too...
Agree with Alan too - put a T'bone in front of me and it will disappear real quick...
I am a frequent Coke drinker... and you guys are making me reconsider my choices. _________________ Goldfish Paradise | Feline Paradise

I'm sure on at least a couple of occasions... due to some ridiculous situations, it has gone out my nose rather than up. _________________ Goldfish Paradise | Feline Paradise

Figure it out yourseves me lads. As humans we breathe in, on average,
21% Oxygen 78% Nitrogen 1% Carbon Dioxide plus minute amounts of other gasses. There is also water vapour.
We breathe out a big increase in Carbon Dioxide.
So it is obvious that Carbon Dioxide is a waste gas produced but the body. What sense does it make to cosume soft drinks, including coke which are loaded with Carbon Dioxide? Answer, none. If you care to research on the internet you will find that many of todays illnesses are caused by cosumpton of soft drinks, or ask you local naturopath.
For God's ske don't give kids this stuff, it's poison that the body gets rid of at each breath.

Geeez it would seem to me to be good for you...and your body...along with all the other elements your body takes in and has to work hard to convert to Carbon Dioxide, and say you live to be 80 yrs old........by increasing the intake up to 25% of CO2, this would make your body not have to work so hard and you should no live to be 20 years older or 100
Now I expect a US gov't grant of a couple of Mil to study this precept
Boy its hard to be humble, when you're perfect in every way
You can be the test dummy
Well pump you full of coke and see if you live to 80
I have been and I am but my pals the test rats couldn't take and kickoffed during the saccarine tests a few years back, and the others died during the eggs cause cancer test some time back
