Coke vs. Water - 07-25-03

Would you prefer a glass of water or a can of Coke?


About WATER:

1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.

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 one's 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 #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, &difficulty focusing on the computer screen or 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.


And now for the properties of 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 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 the ham is done, 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 a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains.

9. Coke will also clean road haze from your car windshield.


For Your Info:

1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid, which has a pH of 2.8 and 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.

2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate), the commercial truck must use the Hazardous Materials placards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean the engines of their own trucks for about 20 years!

Jesus!!
I drink one bottle of water every week. No wonder I'm always sleepy, dizzy, confused, dull witted, sore and horny.

That's really scary, though. I'm going to go drink a gallon right now.


I'LL BREAK YOUR FUCKING BEATS!

I can't vouch for the truthfullness of the "properties of coke" part, but it is pretty bad for you. Not to mention the fact that most people drink 4-5 cokes a day, and then wonder why they're fat. Refined sugar is your worst enemy. Eat fruit. I try to drink about a gallon of water a day.

About BEER:

Beer helps mental health by allowing you to not be as critical and picky. It makes you more 'open' (your legs also).

Beer makes annoying people fun. Beer is good for your social life and popularity.

Seeing as it's made from barley and hops, beer is a grain-based food. It's a great substitute for bread.

Beer is good for people that suffer from depression, as it makes everyday activities, like driving, much more fun and enjoyable.

Beer is a great way to rehydrate your body. Ever notice how people usually drink 3 bottles of beer more quickly than they drink 3 bottles of water?

Beer helps to lower chances of bladder infections, as it makes you pee a lot.

Seeing as your body doesn't digest alcohol, beer is sort of a 'fiber' for your blood. It helps clean your arteries and lower chances of heart attacks.

Nervous about this new date this evening? Drink three or four beers beforehand. The chances of her being attractive and good in bed are much higher after a few beers.

Obey your thirst. Drink beer.

ewww... I am never drinking coke again, ort at least till the next time I'm thirsty


Awake O Dead, for there can be no rest for ye beneath the earth.
Let the splinterd bones burrow from the grave pall. Let cold fingers grip time-worn blades, and unseeing eyes survay the feilds of slaughter. For your time has come once more.
And the dead shall walk.
-From the spell of doom

Why is it that all the posts pointing out why Anti's list is bullshit and Coke's been getting a bum rap for years were deleted?


When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
